Do you know how it goes when your wife decides that something is "not for her"?

Yep. That's how I own 3 bikes (don't need 3). I picked up the Trophy after she decided "it wasn't for her", I couldn't bear to see it go.

I voted Awesome. :D

I've always liked the Bandit and see that this new version of it is a great improvement. I didn't mind the naked/half faired version (and you guys know I like naked and half faired bikes) but to me a 1200 cc bike needs to offer some good touring capabilities and the previous bandit just didn't have this. So I consider this model to be better in that regard, plus it looks great, is low weight and has a great price. Awesome all the way! :mrgreen:

Great voting and discussion guys and gals! And for the results you have been waiting for...


Your Coolness Factor of the 2012 Suzuki GSX1250FA ST/SEA Touring is...

Awesome 41%
Cool 32%
Uncool 27%
Fail 0%

At 41% Awesome, it really does show Suzuki can breath new life into a bike that's based on a old design, as long as it's priced competitively and handes well. Way to go Suzuki. Maybe they will bring back a few more classic Suzuki's and do the same... A naked GS series anyone?

Next Cool Wall Bike now up!
