Fond memories came back to me watching your fantastic TL 1000 Suzuki, I remember when I test rode one back in early days, I found a good bit of road gave her a fair bit of throttle and up came the front wheel and away we go ,big smile on me dial, when all of a sudden the head lining blew out of me helmet and dropped down over my eyes and all i can see is the road under the TL , any way long story short I ended up buying a new helmet, and a gsx1400., have a great time riding cheers mate andy from Australia
