Oddly enough, I got a returnemail from the original BHa few days agostating that he had sold his "Black Magic" in Marchfor a SuzukiM109. Bike looks pretty sharp and was dynoed at 134hp with his mods so far.
Take care

[sm=WTFsgign.gif]A suzuki. LOL what a joke, 134 hp and no style or class. If true ,big mistake BH. Believe me you better stay in canada, those plastic clad sukys get no respect in the USA.
Only the names were changed on BH's reply to conceal identities.

Switched to a Suzuki 109R in March..unreal power/handling, 240 rear, PCIII dynoed at 134hp with exhaust/air mods.
His photoshopped SG looked so much like a suzki, he sold it and bought one. So now he has 134 hp and will always be trying to prove to himself its better than owning a harley , what he will soon find is that his harley commanded a following and respect he will never revisit on a metric. No body cares that a suzuki is fast, its still just a suzuki. If he wanted a fast suzuki he should have bought a GSXR1000, 160+ hp stock.

I can't f***ing belive this ****! He traded that bike of his for a Suzuki? Gunrunner is right. The Harleys command respect. I have never seen anything like it on a BMW on Metric. He will find out and a few dozen dorks tell them they like his "Harley" and he has to splain it's a 'zuki and they IMMEDITATELY lose interest and walk away. Been there done that.
