My current bikes are a 2001 SV650, a 2007 Z1000 and a 1993 Suzuki Goose 350. I will post pictures when I learn how to, especially when I find the RD350LC that I am looking for at the moment.

Hi, Nice collection. A mate of mine has a Goose, Remember looking at it when he had it in bits at work. I think it's still in bits years later ! Nice looking bike though and rare on the roads for sure.

My Goose was my first ever eBay purchase. It was in a bit of a state but with a bit of help from my husband we managed to get it looking nice. Well, I think so anyway. It has purple/green flip paint and bright yellow wheels so certainly stands out! I've had it about 8 years now. Love riding it as it's so different.

The Z1000 is reliable. Only covered about 5000 miles on it though since 2007. The battery needs to be kept charged over winter as the imobilisor drains it. Has a very hard seat but I have an "airhawk" blow up seat that I use on long trips. Riding position is nice though.

The SV650 however is a blinding bike and one that I would not part with in a hurry. Had it from new and it's a great all rounder!

thought about maybe the sv650 as they seem cheap but not shoddy and bit of fun but don't know anyone with one on the road.

SV650 Mark88, Cheap Enough, Light Enough, Fast Enough And Great Engine Braking So You Will Never Need To Buy Pads Or Discs! Good All rounder With No Worries Of Something Getting Too Hot/Falling Off/Seizing Up, Only Sold Mine As I Didnt Use It Much. Insurance OK To, £1700+ Will Get You A Minter If Your Lucky. SV 1000 Also Cheap As Chips But Prefer 650

I agree with you Jeff. I flash my brake light now as friends riding behind me didn't realize how quickly I was slowing down just on the engine alone!

I have an 03 Z1000, it is well modded up and I love it, I think this will be alongside my RZ for many years!
