    I really look forward to these human interest stories. Watching people ride while it is snowing outside where I live makes me look forward to warmer weather. Nice video!

    Commenting from Canada. Great video, inspirational ! I'm working on rescuing my 43 rd. bike, and 17 th Suzuki, so far. Never had an S model 1000, but put 100,000 kms on a 1980-G model.

    Great video!
    It's always cool hearing stories about older bikes and the people who still enjoy them.

    My Gs1000s went on to 367,000 odd Km's before trading her in for an adventure bike. She was with me for 10years. Other than suspension upgrades, I fitted the swing-arm from the Gsx1100e which went in with minor modification. The left passenger holding lug just needs to be heated to bend a few mm outwards and that's it!
    Lovely series and as of today am a subscriber,
    Best wishes from Germany

    I’d argue that this guy is the best motorcyclist in the country. He’s a gem.
