    My goal in life is to find someone who loves me as much as you hate the gladius.

    The hole on the right side rear panel is to see the fluid level of the rear brake cylinder

    These bikes are like the Prius, never lets you down..! My first bike and I ride it very occasionally in the summer months. It’s parked up during the long winter months, and still starts at the very first click.! If you want a good reliable bike, then Gladius all the way. Safe riding people.

    I seen one parked next to my bike several days ago, even uglier in person! That head and tail light is a must!

    It seems to me that people jump on a bandwagon started by some initial review that was one person's view. I own one of these and am quite happy with how it looks otherwise I would not have bought it.

      It rides fine just like a 3rd gen. Just styling is polarizing

    Had me rolling with that welding mask shit, the gladius is ugly as fuck for sure

    I own a 2013 SFV640 and (while it rides great) it’s an abomination to look at. Luckily once you strip off the extra fairings it looks decent. I already have a fender eliminator but still need to swap out the headlight. If you put a round headlight on this bike please post a video!
    Also, did you find a good spot to relocate the seat lock? Mine is just kind of dangling behind the license plate 😅

      Unfortunately about a week after starting my buddy demanded to own it so it's gone now.

      As far as seat latch relocate, you could pretty much pick any spot on the undertail and make a hole for it with a hole saw.

    You should apply to work for Suzuki as a designer, obviously you would design better then their probably whole bunch of designers and managers who gave approvel for Gladius mate... It's personal choice mate,calm done a bit

      @@Mad8vCycles yea, i was questioning Suzuki's intelligence when i saw one was blocked off. Almost everything about the Gladius is wrong haha.
