Hello - Newbie here.

[johnboss]

Hi - new to this group and about to become the owner of a GTR.  I currently ride a Suzuki Intruder 800 and am just starting a project rebuild of a 1997 Suzuki Bandit. 600.  Started back riding 3 years ago after a 30 year break.

Welcome. You are going to love the gtr.

[Icefever]

Welcome on board dude.... when do you collect her.......and the most important Q is..........................what colour is she????   




It has to be GREEN to be a proper one !!!   

[PRD]

Actuall black with a green stripe is the fastest one.

Welcome to the forum and GTR ownership John

There's plenty good advice and help available to you on here, so pull up a chair and join in the fun....there is also a fair amount of p*ss taking too   

[johnboss]

Thanks for the welcome guys.......I'm expecting to collect her in a couple of weeks - I've a little more negotiating power now with the last couple of dealers because we've decided to bring forward the purchase (or ordering) of a Z900 for my son.

It'll be the moondust gray / carbon gray version.  Both dealers in contention for the order have assured me this is the best colour, its the fastest colour and the one all the supermodels prefer to be seen on...and dealers don't lie... do they?

[Icefever]

No dealers don't lie...sh*t just bit ma tongue    their winding you up about the colour,  Moondust/Gray blends with the tarmac.....nobody will see you matey.  Don't believe all they tell you about supermodels also....their all false.....I know from experience
