    Come ride a Suzuki!!



    As two people have had issues with the image here is the important info:

    Suzuki Demo Days
    Friday May 10th and Saturday May 11th
    9Am to 3:30 PM with rides leaving every hour not half hour

    Fay Myers Motorcycle World

    Must be 21 years or older with motorcycle endorsement to test drive, most bikes require 1 year of experience, 3 years riding experience required for sportbikes, riders must provide appropriate riding gear, we reserve the right to refuse anyone a test ride for any reason

    How would one prove that they have 3 years of riding experience?

    Also, what qualifies as "appropriate" riding gear?

    I knew this question would come up, I asked and nobody here knows for sure. That is Suzuki's rule, I would just come out to the test ride. If your current physical license is at least 3 years old that would cover it but what if you just renewed your license like I just did? The license is only 6 months old but I have been riding for 30 years.

    On the gear, while this is not official I would say helmet, jacket, gloves, and long pants (jeans are OK). KTM is the only demo that wanted boots but even they did not really enforce it so any shoe should be OK (just no sandals)

    Hopefully they'll have a new SV1000SF (StreetFighter). Can't wait to see the new round headlight that is all the rage!

    Thanks for finally posting this longrider! I was waiting for them to finally post up. The picture still doesn't work but if it's as Daniel said it would be May 10th and 11th.

    Re: Come ride a Suzuki!!

    Pic shows up for me. Yes it's May 10th & 11th.
    I went last year and rode the 'Busa. There was no issue or question of riding experience, etc. The Fay Myers rep at the bike night last week mentioned they are going to run a longer route this year, more like a 40 minute ride, as opposed to the normal route that all the manufacturers have used that is only about 20 minutes and goes mainly thru reallly low speed areas.

    Too many skis to list

    Re: Come ride a Suzuki!!

    Important update:

    As the ride loop is about 40 minutes long the rides will be leaving every HOUR not half hour. I will update the graphic as soon as I get a new one

    Re: Come ride a Suzuki!!

    Cant decide whether to abuse some demo bikes or hit the canyons. Anybody going to Fay today, Friday?

    longrider, I tried to get on some demo bikes in Daytona during bike week, this was years ago. By 10AM they had reservations for every demo bike throughout the day already filled, except for Buell. Is that likely to be the case at Fay or is it going to be show up and throw a leg over one?

    BTW, I still have no idea what lane bashing, however, it sounds like something you would need a Busa to do.
