Light, powerful, maneuverable, dependable, and keeps on ticking. Plenty of power and suspension, and very easy to handle in the forest. I have used this machine to participate in a 500-mile dual-sport event, across the Sierra Mountains in California every year since new, with no problems at all!...

Light, powerful, maneuverable, dependable, and keeps on ticking. Plenty of power and suspension, and very easy to handle in the forest. I have used this machine to participate in a 500-mile dual-sport event, across the Sierra Mountains in California every year since new, with no problems at all! These early models suffer from occasional hard starting with no real fix, and believe me, I've tried. Suzuki has kept these bikes very similar, except paint and added electric starter, till the new 400 models (it was a good thing -- don't fix it).
