Crikey mate... 20K! Posted Saturday, April 22, 2006 by Mr.7/11
Last month OSS was visited by more than TWENTY-THOUSAND individuals.
They'd better start up another production line at Hamamatsu before we start running out of spares! ;-)

Bike of the Month - April 2006 Posted Thursday, April 20, 2006 by Mr.7/11
When I first saw bikes with the Egli/Moko/Rau design I thought they were pretty horrible, but over the years they started to grow on me and now I really love these machines. Overall the whole design looks much like the early slabbies with the hunch-back tank. Atze's Moko 1216 is a perfect example and the picture screams springtime, should motivate you to get those last details sorted! ;-)

GSX-R7/11F soon to become 1246cc Posted Thursday, April 13, 2006 by Mr.7/11
If you're a true oldskool suzuki freak you must know Sudco. I've allways known them as great source of information on Mikuni Carbs and spare Mikuni Parts, especially for the beloved Mikuni RS range of carbs. Ofcourse they still do Mikuni carbs and bits but also a wide range of tuning stuff including the absolutely gorgeous hand-made Hamaguchi titanium exhaust systems for nuskool GSX-R's and... I was happy to discover JE piston kits! :-)
Not only am I over the moon with the 82mm piston kit they sent me that was on top of my wish-list for a long time, I'm also very pleased to welcome the first US firm as a site sponsor, establishing OSS as a true international community. A big thank you to "mos", his boss and all other Suzuki-riding colleagues at Sudco!
