You have not bought a Suzuki...yet....maybe I'll push the 850 on you Evil
I have a Suzuki ATV  and have already put 3 axles on it and it stalls when warm so I am not happy with it and has 2500 Km  Huh?

Cant figure out the stalling problem and its not just my Suzuki that does it.

I have had many Polaris and have had very few issues compared to this one.

It probably heard you praising kawasakis and decided to take revenge.  Try being nice to it.  Works sometimes with women, right?

My dad is coming here form Mesa next month and he is going to paint my 83 1100...Decals came in today and I called my dad with the paint code. My uncle there in Mesa has a business doing parking lot and road striping/lines. He is well connected ( I have been told good luck finding the paint)to paint wholesale companies. One of my uncle's contracts is all the 7-11's in Arizona!

Put a new exhaust system on the blue Z1R and cleaned and polished her up a bit.   The last two exhaust systems lasted 18 years each on her so at that rate I wont be putting another one on until I am 73 years old.

Swapped out the vacuum petcock on the KLR for a regular one.  Need to see just how much reserve capacity has decreased with the new one.

If you're in Nebraska and the wind stops or you see a tree, pull over immediately and take a nap. You're having road hallucinations.

Welcome to the land of the flat.... well, as flat as Calgary gets...
