I had seen my first quadracers at a local motorcycle shop in maryland when i was about 8 and always wanted one.  But we lived in a not so good area with nowhere to ride so i had to wait til i was 14 and my father and i picked up a 90 lt250.  Tons of problems but we got them worked out.  I eventually sold it and made my way through 250rs banshees, etc. in 2005 i bought a yfz and really got back into riding again, but still had the itch for a suzuki,  did research and hunting from 2010 to 2012, finally landing a very low hour bone stock 87 zilla. So pretty much come full circle from the exact year and make of the bike i drooled over when i was 8, to actually owning one.
