Being a GS'er (That's GS'er, not BS'er) I love to see photos of great old Suzukis, anytime, anywhere.  Yup, I'm a bit envious too, although I did get out several times in November before the insurance ran out.  At the moment the roads are bare and it's plus 5. Maybe next year I'll try to keep one bike insured year round.  Being on Collector plates the insurance is reasonable.  Enjoy your rides.

Hey Trevor, I'm with everyone else on this one.  Keep on posting pics. Good to see some people able to head out for a ride at this time of year.
I do enjoy Pacific coast pictures so that's just an added bonus with the ones you post.........and besides, I am a Bazooki rider myself. Grin

Got out for 130kms today. Went up the Malahat to Cowachin Bay for some French Onion Soup at Rock Cafe. Good times. The roads were dryand on the other side of the Hat it was Sunny. Went through Mill Bay too, it was amazing! December 18th. I'm glad you guys like the pics because I'm having a ball on my old girl! Smiley Smiley
ps anyone recognize the plate holder???

When was it that Mike had his bike shop?

I left in Jan 81 and dont remember him having his own shop.

Gee it had to be right after that because Bought a 1983 GS750e from him in 84 (it was brand new) and I'm sure he had been in biz a couple of years by then. He was on Parkinson Rd

yes it had to be in the early 80.s because Harry Roode bought his black and red 750 Honda there and Guy Bonnie bought his 750 Suzuki from Mike, he moved next door and bought the old Purina warehouse building and had George Guerlinx build the front part. I think that is when Fred Nubbie started wrenching for Mike,  a long time ago kaw74
