My Japanese GS.

I go by Rocketman on the GS Forum. Wanted that same handle here, but there was already another "Rocketman" on MOA, so I had to add the li (for Long Island). That's my story and I'm sticking to it. And now that I know who you are, I definitely remember reading many of your posts over there. The world just got a lot smaller....again! As a matter of fact (depending on how long you've been there), remember a guy about 5 years ago named Doug Mitchel contacted us on the GS site about writing a new book about Japanese bikes? Well, my bike is featured on pages 228-229 of his book "Standard Catalog of Japanese Motorcycles 1959-2007". Guess my 'Zuke now has its 15 minutes of fame.

Also have 3 old Honda CB550's that I'm trying to make into cafe racers. They're mostly in parts right now.
 
Boy, those pics of the Suzook GS's bring back memories. My first new street bike was an '80 850G, subsequently owned one more of those, 2 GS1000G's, and a Wes Cooley Rep as well. My wife rode an GS650G for a couple of years. Took me a long time to get me off a Suzook, pretty much bullet proof with the exception of the regulator/rectifier problems.

And the GS850GL, Suhweet!

Cheers!

PS...but none of those machines compares to my '04 R1100S!
 
My Alaska bike.

I didn't want to get my 1985 K100RT al dirty so I bought this V-Strom for a trip to Alaska. My friends said that it was so ugly that it looked evil. So I named it Vader the V-Strom as in Darth Vader. One picture is leaving and the other is returning from Alaska. It went though several car washes before I got home but there was alot of dirt on the inside. It was a good choice for the trip.

My 14 year old Son Seth and his Papa rode 8K miles in 18 days to Nova Scotia, Canada.

This picture was taken just 10 days ago at Cape Breton in the Maritime Provinces.
