Here's my beef, Jay Leno can afford to buy his bike, Suzuki should review their records for that loyal repeat buying "average guy" and give him a damn bike.

Life is not fair, I accepted that a long time ago, but Michael Jordan walks into a restaurant and his meal is on the house, same for a movie, and some ballgame. When do stars/icons actually have to spend their own money?

agreed life is not fair, they get their freebies because having them use your product or business sells to thousands of star struck wannabes.
it is some of the cheapest and most effective advertising a business can get. how many thousands of posers will now be going out to buy a new gsxr1000? they don't need to give you a bike you'll pay for one willingly.

I think it's cool that he's into cars/bikes. Like it or not it's nice to have a "star" on our side when they all stand up and start preaching the greener life style with no motors and what not.

Look deeper home boy. Its cheap advertising for Suzuki. Prolly costs 4k to build one of these and that is cheap for Leno to advertise.

Not to mention that Ducati is running last year's WSBK championship winning bike (at 1200 cc, no less) in the super bike class. Oh yea, the AMA is sooooo pro Suzuki it's frightening!




Yea they'd find that piece in the parking lot after I left.
yeah i did multiple takes when i read that the 1125 races in the 600 class. kinda shitty that the old rsv is in there too but that makes a bit more sense considering its age.

Damn. That was cold!!!

Leno on a GSXR? He probably uses it for wiping his ass. Who gives a shit about a fucking Gixxer, Sibber, Yizfer, or Zixxer when you have a Desmosedici...er and a Y2k kicking around in your (extremely large) garage?
