Visited the 2009 Helsinki Bike Show today. Basically a waste of time, very few new models. Did get to test sit a couple of interesting bikes.
Also my camera decided it would be fun to take vga quality pics instead of 5 Mpix. And I especially did check the camera before. But somehow it still changed to vga quality. Not the first time this has happened! And yes, I know how to use it. It's just f***ed up somehow.

Anyway, here's a couple of tiny pix of the '09 GSX650F ABS in orange.

It looks better in orange in your photos, than on the Suzook web site.

Is the paint bi-directional or are the yellow highlights reflections? 8)

Waiting for this!! Shame the engine block and cover isnt black too... other guards and supports be nice in black or same orange. I have some ideas for mine. Theres one on youtube with a great looking, matching colour flash seat too.
As for the ABS issue - is it an optional extra in UK?? Can you import a kit from Begium or elsewhere? Suzuki should think more about stopping safely rather than the free restrictor kits i reckon.

EDIT - my dealer(s) have come back to me... Bad idea to import, No ABS in UK nor planned, Not seen the model with black engine and it'll be £400 to do it; maybe a treat later in the year!

There's a global financial crisis going on. Suzuki saved 3 cents per bike not putting them on and were able to lay off the whole tank stripes decal department.:lol:
The 2010 model will come with a decal kit as an optional extra for $35.95
