Sure enough. I'll be glad to go look at it for anyone here who's interested.

The one Suzuki I actually had. A neighbor needed money badly, so I bought it cheap. Rode it once and sold it. Was like riding a H1 2 up with a plug wire pulled.

I always liked the GTs. I don't know about them being dogs though. I knew a guy growing up who had an absolute RAT 550 and he could wheelie that thing like nobody's business and it ripped. I rode it and seemed fast at the time. Eric did pretty good on his too.

Jeff liked his. And i rode Erics at the gap, it was a nice build. Guess I'm just used to the Kawi triples.
