Leno recieves '09 GSXR1000
American Suzuki Motor Corp. (ASMC) announced today that the company presented "Tonight Show" host and long-time motorcycle enthusiast Jay Leno with one of the first 2009 Suzuki GSX-R1000 models off the production line. The presentation was held on Friday, April 10, 2009, at Leno's famed Big Dog Garage in Burbank, Calif. According to ASMC, the presentation is intended as a "thank you" to Leno, for his years of supporting the motorcycle industry and for bringing mainstream awareness to the motorcycle industry. "Wow, what can I say to a new Suzuki but ‘thanks,' " said Leno, who is retiring from the "Tonight Show" this year. "Not only will this bike make a great addition to my already extensive Suzuki motorcycle collection, it'll give me something to do with the free time I'm about to have on my hands. I've been a motorcycle enthusiast for years and I really appreciate Suzuki's sentiment in presenting me with this motorcycle." The Suzuki GSX-R1000 is the flagship sportbike for ASMC. For 2009, the Suzuki GSX-R1000 was completely redesigned for ‘09. The new model boasts a brand-new frame, powerful and compact engine, and more aggressive and aerodynamic bodywork. The Suzuki GSX-R1000 has won the last six AMA Superbike Championships, it won every AMA Superbike race in 2008 and it's won the last 51 consecutive AMA Superbike races. The Suzuki GSX-R1000 truly does own the racetrack.

Jay Leno is a self described guy with more money than brains. He is my role model

I wonder how spies would do with his AMA team in WSBK. It would be interesting to see. I wonder how different the rules were last year before AMA fucked everything up between AMA and WSBK. Anyone know?
