Ebbs15 said I should pop in to say hi so here I am.
Wasn't sure where to stick my nose in but thought the mod section was as good a place as any.
I'm David from the UK and I run the GSX1400 club, real shame you guys never had a chance with this bike as I think you would have loved it. I guess you could say that I have owned 4 1400's since 2001, 1st one I did a few cosmetic mods and fitted a SuperCharger, sold that when it got to the 'lose my life or my licence' point. 2nd one I did a few mods and rode it for a year before before I got board - only parts left as standard are the front wheel / clocks and most of the engine.
You can see the old 'charged' 14 here > http://david-stallard.smugmug.com/gallery/6868208_g5duS#439356124_WKovK
And a couple of youtube clips of the 'new one' here, 1st clip is the build up (you will notice part way through we changed the rear design from twin shock to mono) and the 2nd is the finished thing (finished for now anyway)

I wont promise to be a prolific poster as I spend most of my time running the 1400 site and trying to learn how to use my new camera but will pop in when I can.

PS: Happy New Year guys
