Thanks for the comments, I rode it about 90 miles down country backroads home from the shop Saturday, it is a great little bike. I felt like I was in one of Peter Egan's tales of riding a vintage bike he so often writes about. It does have that classic look and feel about it but with F.I. and a front disc brake. We took all of the badging off this morning to give it that sense of mystery. The only thing that says Suzuki is the clutch cover on the left side of the engine and the oil filter cover on the right. I do expect the same delay factor I experience with my America but this may be more stories of old Honda CLs and CBs than classic Triumphs.
I recommend this little bike to any new rider wanting to join the sport of motorcycling and hope that Suzuki will consider keeping this bike in its lineup.
