2013 Indy MotoGP. Suzuki representive found me on my way in the main gate, Friday afternoon.
One guy in a Sukuki shirt saw the bike, and was talking to me, and another guy in Suzuki shirt came up and was trying to interupt the first guy saying that the bike was suppose to be stock, and I had to explain to them both that it is all stock.
THen they invited me to park in thier display area for "Suzuki: 50 years in the US.". WHich I did Friday and again Saturday.
TO add to the story:
WHile I was in the display, I noticed that different guys in Suzuki shirts, must have been on the event staff, would stop and look at the GK and look puzzled, and then look at the pictures on the big display boards. ANd then I realised that, hey, these guys were probably not born yet in 1982 or maybe were in grade school. So, I was chatting with one of those guys, and I asked if they had anyone older there, and he made a call, and before too long a guy about my age showed up. He identified my bike as a GK right away. ANd said the he had an 1100G.
He said he was mostly retired other than his involment in "events", but that his carreer with Suzuki USA did go back to the 70s, and he seemed excited to see the GK, and excitiedly started to tell me about how he was involved in finding american fairing manufactures for the dealer add ons ...... and then when they were planning for the Cavelcades and then the GKs he was involved ... and then he abruptly discontinued his story, changed the subject and went back into the crowd. My therery was that he was ecxited to talk about the GK and his carreer, but then realized he was not suppose to divuge details about the source/supplier of the fairing/bags.
But, that is my story of my "brush with fame". Yah, I talked to a guy that was involved in develpment/production of the GK and prior.
I didnt get him to sign my bike (but I did get a bussiness card that maybe I still have someplace).

Had to look up what a Stig is. Seems a Brit bike like a Velocette Venom would be a more suitable ride for him.
That visor gets pretty dark in bright sunlight. Fortunately at night it's clear. Have to flip it up riding into a tunnel though.Roger

I think this picture beautifully captures the harmony between my soul, this body, and the mechanical machine. There's something almost sacred about the Triumph T120; it moves with the physical self, not just beneath it. This year, we set out with the Scrambler 1200, embracing the ride as both an adventure and continued journey within.
Have a great day!

I’ll go with the GS even though I think I looked better in the Tiger pic.
