Didt know suzuki did a 1500? Looks like a GSX1400 engine to me. Maybe its bored out.
Kindest Regards,
Richard.

It takes a lot to beat a Featherbed frame. Its a classic, and difficult to beat.
Nice job done there.
1. The point of a journey is not to arrive.
2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.
Best Regards

I'm so glad I didn't let my bike licence lapse anyhow. Even though it costs me about $100 a year just to have it.

I'm not keen on the bike, it's not one thing or the other. He should have used a relevant frame to the engine and made a streetfighter or
vice versa and made a café racer. He just has a Japanese engine in a wobbly old frame now.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
