This motorcycle is my baby. She has this amazing honey yellow color and I just love the V2 motor. And the sound! This bike is the perfect fit for daytrips to the hilly Eifel, which is just an hour away from my home in Aachen. I’ve had this bike for over 4 years now and I don’t think I can ever give her away. Biene means bee in German and she has a little stuffed “Maya the Bee”, which I put on the back of the bike.

We’ve been to so many places together already. The highlights were in 2017 and 2018 when my husband and I went to Austria for the Club of Newchurch Motorcycle Festival. I was so stoked to see the Suzuki Club represented there, as Biene was one of the fewer Suzuki bikes at that festival.

I got my first motorcycle right after I got my drivers license: A Suzuki GS500 — a typical bike for beginners.

I liked the fact that I didn’t need to worry about the bike getting damaged in a crash, because the old thing was not worth that much, so there was not much to lose or be sad about.

So after a year driving this bike I was ready for something new, something bigger with more horsepower. That’s when I sold this one and got the big sister Suzuki SV650AV from 2001.

Hello fellow riders! I hope you will enjoy my posts.

My name is Hilâl and I am from Germany. My family originally comes from Turkey, so I grew up bilingual. In my free time I love to play volleyball and of course travel on my motorcycles. Yes, I used the plural, but we will get to that later.
I got interested in motorcycles when I was about to get my drivers license at 17. Unfortunately my parents were not too amused about the idea of me riding a motorcycle, as they could only see the danger coming towards me. So instead of getting the license for both cars and motorcycles, I only got one for cars. Big mistake as it turned out: the costs for the combined license was way lower than getting them separately.

Hili_Moto First Motorcycle Ride in 2012

The first time I sat on a motorcycle was as a pillion rider on my boyfriend’s bike. I loved the adrenalin rush! So I joined him on a lot of rides and met some really nice riders from Aachen, who shared the same love for motorcycles. It was only after I talked to one of the female riders in the group that I got the courage to say “Okay I want to ride my own motorcycle” and so I got the license. Thanks to Kerstin on this note ❤ You will always be my best riding friend!
