According to an internal source, Suzuki will import no GSX-Rs or other streetbikes into the American market for 2010 as the unsold 2009 models on dealer floors are expected to satisfy demand. Overall, US motorcycle sales through the first three quarters of this year total just 434,370 compared to 771,950 during the same period last year, a drop of 44 percent. Suzuki has announced no new street models for the 2010 model year. We were unable to reach Suzuki for an official comment, but word has it 2010 models are available for order should dealer stocks unexpectedly be diminished.

Update: Suzuki USA has confirmed this news, saying "Thanks Wes. Your article is correct.  Let's hope sales heat up!" but hasn't yet been able to formulate an official statement. Stay tuned.

That SUCKS. I was liking the new color scheme of the 2010. Wonder if you could order it? If they are going to force you to buy a model that you didnt buy when they came out....that will hurt them allot. Will find out on the weekend of the MC show here on the 5-7 Feb
