Hi all, im new here, reading this forum for a while now.
Im from Holland so what better color then to buy an orange bike
Actually it's my brother bike, it will come in 1 week or so (has to be limited to 25kw ) cos he's 19, we allready made some pictures of it at the Suzuki dealer De-Valkenier in Barneveld Netherlands.
Mods so far : Leovinci exhaust,pilot xenon 8000k.
Maby still to come mods : blackwind screen, rear hugger (powerbronze)
First he was going for the black one, but that makes it look like a minibike.
It's the only bike he fits on (can put his knee under the tank) in this 25kw class,but thats not bad at all he is 2.16m (7.09 feet) tall.
Love the Orange, it is what i really wanted but could not see forking out another 2,000 dollars. where did you have the mirrors with led's? would like to put those on mine, please let me know. your brother is a big boy.

Did you place the "ABS" sticker on the front fender? I have the orange one as well. Rode it today but forgot to test the ABS. I noticed nowhere on the bike does it say ABS. Nor in the manual. Also, my bike does not have the third line going to the bottom of the fork. I know it's a stupid question, "do you think I own a bike without ABS?" Will talk to dealer tomorrow. Salesman told me the bike was ABS.

ride on some loose gravel at 10mph (15 kph) and hit the rear brake. If the wheel stays locked you don't have ABS. Be very careful if you try this i don't want you falling over.

Look at the front rim, you can see the ABS sensor and the extra ring arround the axel, smaller than the brakedisk,in picture 1 This bike has got ABS, If you don't see the ring with all the small slots.... you don't have ABS
