Same here...found this place looking for info on the C 50.

Scribbles · 01-23-2007, 09:10 PM

Googled "Suzuki bikes discussion," and found this place. Found the folks here nice, and polite--for the most part

We got great information, and keep coming back. We get lots of encouragement here, and we respect the knowledge of the people here who have been riding for a long time.

Mavman · 01-23-2007, 09:26 PM

Seriously.......I got hooked on cruisercustomizing.com after purchasing my bike, came upon Scott-zukidudes website-(my very first forum) and happened upon this site shortly there after. The info/camaraderie/and the members I've met while on line and in person on here have been great and keep me comin' back!!!

Looking for someone to ride with on weekends.

Still looking.

SoCalCruisin · 01-24-2007, 01:35 AM

Looking for info on the C50 shortly after I got it. Lots of good info, much of which I have used for myself and for my brother who has the M50. I've only delved a little into one other forum on Yamaha Ventures just to get info on that bike. They were good also, but I don't ride the RSV at this time. I did my growing up overseas mostly, so I like the international community we have here also. I also like the variety of bikes here.

**inspiron** · 01-24-2007, 05:08 AM

I'm part of the inventory.

Back about a million years ago, after buying my GSX 1400, I was looking for information about motorcycling in general as well as specific infos about Suzuki bikes. I Google'd and came across "www.Suzuki-Bikes.com".

I lurked, I joined, I stayed.

I've learned a lot, made many new (virtual) friends, and a few enemies. It's just like real life...it just doesn't smell as bad sometimes.

JmalB · 01-24-2007, 06:07 AM

I was lead here by a thread on motorcycle.com. I stayed for the good info and motorcycle knowledge.

**Trapper** · 01-24-2007, 07:44 AM

Great thread!

Oh come on now....I can't be the only On-line Sexual Predator here?

Really...I'm surprised Tim didn't say that one....

Anyway, yeah...was interested in a bike (M50) I saw at the dealership & was researching it when I came upon the site. Been here nearly everyday since. I've obtained a vast amount of information from this site and the people who visit it and benefited from this information.

Hey you can't be more then a couple hours from me, I'm game.
I'll paitently wait for Tims response...

Xerses · 01-24-2007, 10:06 AM

When I started looking for a bike last year in February I stumbled upon an M50 pic, researched it and Google brought up these forums (M50 forum specifically). Glad I found it.

Why I keep coming back? There are few forums in which almost all members are respectful of others, intelligent with something smart to say when needed, resources of information, willing to help even a newb who knows little (like I was) and fun to chat with. The members keep the forums clean and there are no flamers who go picking a fight (unless we get into that whole "I'm French Canadian and better than you" thing (which is true, but I digress)

). I would like to think that if I were to get the chance to meet any of the members I have chatted with in these pages that I could call them friend. It's a nice place to hang out with fellow bikers.

AZRyder · 01-24-2007, 10:27 AM

Just Googled as I was looking for riders groups etc.

I was and am still occasionally on intruder alert but generally not too thrilled with the attitude of some of the people on there. This board is great
