I feel sorry for you guys

I just looked at the Suzuki USA web site to see what accessories you have listed for the new 1250 and all you have really is a chrome license plate holder. We're lucky in the UK - we have twice as many accessories listed - the top case and the trim panel.  :lol:

In fact, looking at Gifts/Miscellaneous, I see you can get hold of a genuine Suzuki Bar Stool, a Suzuki mug, a Suzuki backpack etc. - far more things than anything that actually fits your bike. A Bar Stool eh? We can see what Suzuki consider to be the essentials.  :duh:

I guess that and having the largest single market and not having the largest selection of motorcycles to choose from is the price we pay for our lower taxes.  :lol:

Are you kidding? Personally I'm counting my blessings...we could have had AL "your motorcycle exhaust is ruining the planet" Gore and we may still end up with Hillary "Now where'd Bill and my intern run off to?" Clinton  :shock:

That's what you get for assuming the typically lame suzuki website is actually showing what is available.

Suzuki dealers have already even been selling belly pans, lower fairings on sale for example.

The UK site didn't show much other than GIVI stuff. Here I think Suzuki prefers GIVI sell it's stuff privately.

I saw Joan Baez in concert a couple of weeks ago - she seemed to reckon that her popularity as a protest singer has increased with George around.  :lol:
