Just picked up my 97 vz800 and after 30 years out of cruising. What a great and relaxing ride back home (it amazingly all comes back to you). I could not stop going back out to look at it, wax it and ride it again. This is very addicting and going for a bit of a cruise up north or mid north Ontario backroads. My first impressions are that she wants to kick up her heels but is a very forgiving and docile ride if you control it. It is very responsive and 3 people on the first day have told me it looks like a Harley but are impressed that it is Japanese Suzuki. I think I do not need anything bigger than this. Anybody out there that has the same rush as me on this bike?
