    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Wow....thats a nice improvement on an already great looking bike.....can't believe they wont market those in North America :(.


Tony.
 
WOW!!:shock: That's one beautiful machine! I am going to go cry now...
 
And we can't buy them. The whole world DOES hate America.

Nice looking ride ya got there.
 
Thanks...

Thanks...

Thanks for the great replies everyone... Sometimes I feel left out over here, 98% of the Americans that ride are either on Harley's or crotch rockets so I usually ride with the Okinawans...
 
Yep, there are a few Jarheads mixed in, we all ride together! Okinawa has really changed, one who hasn't been here in 15+ years would be suprised at the changes...
 
Welcome :D

It's good to have a GSR member who actually owns one of these bikes.
 
Great looking bike! :) We're all very envious because they won't sell them here. For many of us, this is the ONE bike we would buy in a heartbeat. I can't imagine what their reason(s) are for not selling it here??
 
They are actually stopping sales of the GSX and several other big bike next year in England also. Something about they will not be able to meet the new emission laws over there. I believe the main reason they along with Yamaha XJR's are not sold in the US is because of poor sales on naked standard bikes. Years ago when Honda released the CB1000 "Big One", sales were much lower than expected. About the only naked bike that has seen decent sales in recent years is the Bandit. Of course, you have the new KZ1000 but it resembles more of a crotch rocket without fairings than the true Naked Standards... If I decide to come back to the US when I retire, I thought about trying to bring mine, their is a guy out west who managed to get one back, here is the link...

Go to GSX1400 visitor bikes page 6 and the last entry down is a GSX1400 in Casper, I am assuming Wyoming.

His pic is awesome!
Unfortunately, the big GSX would be competing head-on with the Bandit here in Canada...but not in the U.S., as the bandit is'nt being sold there anymore I believe.
