Very solid and well built motor scooter ! It has all the power you need and is very quick. It has many nice features such as a power windshield, power retractable rearview mirrors and ABS brakes. Even though I weigh 290 lbs., I usually get over 55mpg. on my 100 mile trips. The driving experience is that it is very solid ,smooth and manverable. The engine is counterbalanced and has very little/no vibration. I feel that Suzuki made a mistake in dis-continuing the 650 as it has the capacity to tour coast to coast as well as staying close to home. It has been 100% reliable and dependable with zero problems thus far ! Show less

Great power and acceleration. Best bike I've owned. Better than most bikes with double the displacement. Comfortable and good in the corners. Suzuki nailed it with this one. No complaints after 6000 miles. Harley's beware. This thing is the real deal. Show less

Awesome performance machine. Comfortable ride quality. Super reliable, never any issues of any kind, well tuned and pleasure to ride. Sounds super cool with aftermarket duals and the power of this bike is like no other. Easy to maintain. Very fuel efficient at about 58 mpg. Show less

I Purchased this beast new on 1992. I had owned a 1982 gs 1100 s. Talk about another beast these standard where the foundation for the drag bikes of the day. That being said the 92 was a dream come true. Yes definitely heavy especially for being 5ft 8 in but never felt like i had any problems the seat height was the key. Still have it today with only 10.000 mile all original. Just have a stage 3 carb kit and after market pipe Vance and Hines. Great for touring. Will never sell it! Show less

Suzuki M109R is very heavy big bike. It is very fast. I think of it as swollen heavier two piston Suzuki Hayabusa. I would say almost a hybrid betwen sport bike and cruiser. It can easily outperform any production cruiser out there. It has a shaft - no chain to back wheel - it is virtualy maintance free. It will never betray you. Super stable in high speeds. Proven technology as it is comming from factory almost without change for more then a few decades. Everything what could potentialy be of concern is now tuned to perfection. There are other good cruisers of this kind some BMWs, Yamaha V-MAX for example. But only the M109R offer the rumble when you riding like the classic riders guys do, but when you hit the gas full throtle you will see everyone in your mirror and fall in love with the bike everytime you will do it.

Fell in love at first sight when I saw this bike at my local dealer. I bought it used with 14,000 miles on it. I've gone on some long trips, and shorter rides out on county roads near where I live outside Atlanta. Just a great overall bike. Shaft driven is smooth. Good response. Top in is limited to about 100 mph. (I ride with some speed demons) Plan on keeping it for a very long time. Show less

This bike is my lifetime 20th motorcycle..About 14 dirt and 6 street. Third street suz. I got her after a 3 month search.. Wasn't looking for any specifics , just one that fit me....like an old shoe.Lucked out it was a suz which is my fav for the street... She was already 30 yrs old when I got her. All original. 2 owners. Garaged w/24k on her. 2nd owner had her 12 yrs. I asked how she rode on the fwy. He says,"I've never had it on the fwy.". Wow. Gave it a good up close examination. Just stared at it inch by inch. Took one slow lap around the block listening to every noise it made. Got back,paid the guy full asking price(1500) and we've been in love ever since. Can not wait to get home and ride everyday. I also live in Ventura Ca. where you can ride 360 days a year. Ok....I lucked out. Finally. Almost any bike cared for like mine will be awesome. Find one that fits YOU.Dont just get what your buddy has.. But you could. I've crashed around 300 times, all in the dirt when I was younger. Not once in the street,almost a couple times though. This gixxer has plenty of acceleration braking, handling and reliability than I'll ever need. Actually going to take her to the track to see what she can really do. 1.make sure it fits you 2-take a riding course, or 2 if not much experience . 3Haul butt...for very brief moments when in street if is clear. Very brief. 4 .To the track if you need more. 5.200 mph you'll need a bigger bike. 150 is plenty for me..Have fun Show less

I bought this as a left-over '05 in early 2006. Saw the transport arrive at the dealer, picked it out while it was still in the crate partially assembled. Picked it up later that day with 6/10 of a mile on the odometer. Since then I've put 68, 750 miles on it, some not so gentle. I love this bike and I'm going to do my best to keep her running for as long as possible. Show less
