Well a few weeks ago my girlfriend's little cousin accidentally knocked over my bike when he was skateboarding. For whatever reason that made my starter relay not want to work anymore. I ordered one for 80 bucks from some canadian parts place. I was so eager to get it that I didn't read the "universal suzuki starter relay" heading. So it take 2 weeks and finally gets here...would not fit on the bike unless I did some heavy duty wire editing. So I called up my local Fun Bike Center, and ordered one from them...for 55 bucks...and they'll have it day after tomorrow....I don't wanna wait anymore!

I wooould push start it...but it's in serious need of a tuneup, and has choke issues...so when it is cooler I end up running up and down the street with it trying to get it to kick over. This usually ends with me having very bruised calfs...

Oh well...Just venting some frustration...I wanna be out there riding...

that sucks, make the little bastid pay for them both!

Well...I'm sorta too nice of a person
The only other thing that was broken was the RH mirror. Which the Dad said he will re-imburse me for whatever I pay for it. (Hmm...anyone know where I can get a "$250 mirror"? )
I guess I just don't have principles or anything

My 97 was totalled after it was hit by a S-10 pick-up a couple years ago, but the starter still worked. Bought it back for salvage and put it back on the road for $250.

Did you check the 2 wires on the clutch switch under the left hand grip, these have come loose and fooled more than a few people besides myself.

Check the OEM parts prices on one of the online parts fitches, got mine for about 25% off at RonAyers to fix my totalled bike.

Wow...I never even saw that on GS Twin before...(spend most of my time on the forum). Looks like I've found a new way to shop
