Around July 2004 I decide it is time for a new bike, and I mean NEW.
Looked around at my options, costs etc, and ended up buying a Suzuki GSXR750 K4 - first registered owner with 3 miles on the clock. An awesome bike with a lot
of power, and that was before I had run it in. I ran it in and had its first service in a week. I got it tested to see what it was 'pushing out'.
An impressive 130bhp at the back wheel, not bad for a standard 750. Not content with this, I did a bit of tinkering (power commander, retard eliminator
blue flame exhaust etc)and got it 'pushing out' an even more impressive 144bhp at
the back wheel! I then changed my gearing to take the top speed (173mph) down and increase my acceleration. I took out almost a whole gear ratio. The front wheel
was almost impossible to keep down in first gear. In second it would wheelie off the throttle from 70mph straight up.
