National Committee
The Suzuki Owners Club is run by a National
Committee, who are all unpaid volunteers from the membership.
Each Committee Member is responsible (loose description) for
certain aspects of the Club. The National Committee is elected
once a year at the Suzuki Owners Club Annual General Meeting.
If you have a particular query by all means
feel free to write or email them with your question and they
will try to respond at soon as possible. The Club address
is at the bottom of this page, or try the contacts
page for more specific contact details.

I joined the SOC in 1992, although I had been riding Suzuki’s
since 1979 – I had the first GSX750 in the UK when they were launched that year.
I have owned various other marques including Honda CBX1000, YamahaXS650 US Custom, I have never owned a Kawasaki,
don’t know why, perhaps the old “rubber” frames of the ‘70’s machines put me off.
Suzuki is the bike for me, if you cut me in half, it would be like a stick of rock – Suzuki all the way through,
after a brief excursion with a GT250 I moved to my GSX750, since then I have owned GSX1100, GS1000, GS750,
another GSX1100 & GS1000, then I moved to more modern stuff, a GSX750F, RF900 and my pride and joy now is a GSX1400
I try to get out to events when work and family commitments allow, but from where I live in the Lake District I
have an hours travel before I even reach a motorway, I know they are mind numbingly boring, but they are the
fastest way to get from A to B, I do however participate in as many of our local “biking” events as possible,
usually MAG events as we do not have a BMF section around here. I have worked on the club show stands at the NEC,
Stafford, BMF show, Scottish bike show, and Kelso Bikefest plus loads of other events where the club is promoted.
The SOC is to me THE best club in the world, promoting the best make of bike in the world.
If you see me out and about at events, come up and have a chat – none of us bite – honest. If you have a club
related problem e-mail me and I will see if it can be resolved, if I don’t know the answer I will take it to the
NC for you and we should be able to sort it there for you.
Ride safe and keep it rubber side down
