Well my gs found its new nickname yesterday. I've been messing about with it a bunch, cruised it up and down the driveway a number of times and cussing about the soiderwebs here and there. Gave it a degreasing and a bath yesterday before moving it into its spot in the shop for dismantling. And out comes a giant black widow from the fins on the front of the motor. Man I hate spiders and I've been hit by a widow before and it was quite an experience. So black widow it is. Ughhh. So glad I went through with a washing as I was humming and hawing about whether to or not bother.

Now ive got to decide just how far to go into this sucker. But it's probably coming right apart I think. Really glad I got to cruise it around even a little bit before working on it. What a cool bike. The wife's even warmed up to it some, which is a good thing for funds allocation lol.

still reading lots and compiling a plan. Trying to research lots so I won't ask to many stupid questions. But I'm sure some will be coming.

A late welcome.
Yours is among my favorite-est Suzuki models.
Enjoy and good luck.

...I've got to reinstall the airbox...

Get prepared to learn a whole new vocabulary of curse words.

If you want to do anything with the battery (even just look at it), do it now.
