On the same note 2003 Suzuki's
Torrance, California, September 23, 2002 -- Advertisement
Already in possession of the beast that trounces all other heavyweight contenders, Suzuki went ahead and made it beautiful too. Vertically stacked headlights (can you stack things horizontally?) made room for Suzuki engineers to move the bike's (bigger) air intakes closer to the high-pressure nose cone, which increases pressure into the 10.2-liter airbox and makes more torque, says Suzuki. Drawing from its GSV-R GP bike, Suzuki also bestowed slipperier fenders and sleeker bodywork unto the Thousand, with a pointy new LED taillight and smaller turnsignals aiding the plot. The fuel tank has been made narrower where it meets the seat -- making it easier to move around and tuck in -- and Suzuki says the new nose is to maximize wind protection at the track and on the road. Not only is it black, the new frame's main spars are now extruded and reinforced with three internal ribs each. The steering head and swingarm pivot sections are unchanged--as are all chassis geometry figures. Race kit parts are supposed to be available to make the pivot adjustable.
Holy ****...these are beautiful

Can't access the link, I'm not a member. Here's a link to Suzuki's website to take a look. These bikes are fast as hell! I've ridden a 2002, and they are insane!
