My Vuclan Is Gone , Got Me GSX1400 "pic's"

G · 02-16-2008

hi guy's / gal's , as some of you may already know i work for a Suzuki motorcycle dealership & felt its time i ride what i sell & preach daily . i sold my Vulcan through my workplace , i purchase a new GSX1400K8 08 Model .

the GSX1400 has a air / oil cooled 1402cc 4 cylinder engine , a true naked muscle bike & goes like the wind . the ride is upright & extremely comfy , it handles & brakes unreal & has 125nm of torque @ 5000rpm / it produces 115nm of torque @ 3000rpm & makes power up to its 9000rpm redline . it would be great if (GSX1400) was sold in the USA IMO ..

Can't get that bike in the States

Hey G, just curious - what part of "'earth" are you from?

captain Rando · 02-16-2008

Yeah...I haven't seen that bike either. Wow! A normal bike, nice upright handlebars, no big hump at the back of the tank to get in the way of my years of life experience. I like it. Nice.

**2WheelFun** · 02-16-2008

Awesome bike! Congrats on the new purchase!

*Tod* · 02-16-2008

Well, it sure is pretty, that's for certain. Congrats.

JTpaintball70 · 02-16-2008

Nice looking bike. I'd love to get to see one of those in person

rbentnail · 02-16-2008

Congrats!! I recently went away from cruisers and got a Yamaha FJR, so I have some idea of just how big your grin factor is. Get out and enjoy that bike!!

900classic · 02-16-2008

Congrats. I hope you enjoy the new ride.

**Spok** · 02-16-2008

you swap bikes more than most change their underwear

nice bike, we await your review

Constrictor · 02-16-2008

Wow, that is a true standard. Reminds me of the KZ1000 and old Honda CB650-750s of the late 70s and early 80s, but with 1400 ccs and modern technology.

Why the heck won't Suzuki sell that here?!?! There are plenty of guys who are older now who remember those great Japanese inline 4s from that era who might still like something like that!!!

MeanieMel · 02-16-2008

Cool Bike, Resembles the Bandit 1250 sold here in the States....

Rumour has it companies like HD blocked it from being sold in the USA , it was said the GSX1400 wil sell like hot cakes if it was offered in the USA .

125nm / 96 ftlbs of torque @ 5000rpm
Fuel injected
6 piston front brakes
46mm inner front fork tubes
22 litre fuel tank
224 kg dry weight
extremely comfy two up
120 front tyre / 190 rear tyre BT020 Bridgestone
it responds very well to modd's & is $12990.00 AUD australian dollars

You can't get that bike in the states...but you can do what I did and have one done! And it being a Kawasaki instead of a Suzuki is only gravy!

G · 02-16-2008

^^
i had me a ZRX1200R recently great machines , the ZRX is slightly stronger in out right HP . but the GSX1400 is the grunt master , it has massive muscle ripping low down torque ..
