beats the Harley method, that one requires a tattoo…

And after she’s finished with the violin practice. She can go riding on the motorcycle.

A very popular and successful method, taught by many. Contrary to what’s shown, however, is that the Suzuki-riding is done by the teacher. That is their mode of transportation.

When I was a kid, if anyone mentioned Suzuki, the first noise that came to mind is:

Rrrrrrrrrrrrnnn -nnnn-nnnn-nnnn-nnnn-nnnn-nnnn-nnnn

Where’s the alien? I can’t find the alien! I don’t see the alien! I CAN’T FINISH THE COMICS UNTIL I FIND THE ALIEN!! …gotta calm down, it’ll be okay… I think he just forgot to put him in there!

Is it me or is Bleeb squashed under the front tire?

Thats just stupid!

Is that a Yamaha violin?

As long as the handle bars don’t obstruct her motion!

She soon be able to play her violin and ride the motorcycle at the same time – with no hands on the handlebars. (It is strongly recommended that students wear not only a helmet, but pads as well.)

Sweet Suzy Suski sitting on her Suzuki. Thanks for inspiring me to look up Suzuki violin, the story behind the method is fascinating.

Well, that’s pretty good motivation. Give her brother a Kawasaki drum kit and see where they go.

If fiddle make her play better, why not.

As she plays the violin, she speeds up the motorcycle to drawn out the god awful violin noise.

I hope this happening in a separate sound proof building.

Hope it’s not a bunch of hot air

You know, you guys can say what you want about Japanese motorcycles, but compare apples to apples. The Honda Goldwing compared to Harleys dresser. There is no comparison. GW can go 100k-120k mi without extensive repairs, where the HD even on web sites 50k-70k mi. Maintenance goes to GW. Even with changing air filter. I just had 6k service on my HD $460. The highest service on my GW was $290. Ride no comparison GW wins. Fuel mileage GW, Handling GW, Resale GW.

I don’t think I’ve ever heard “Born To Be Wild” performed on violin.

“No you CAN’T join a motorcycle gang!—Too much violins!”

Hillary, one of the worst fiddlers I’ve ever heard was schooled in the Suzuki method…

Listening to her practice is exhausting.

Classical musician AND a biker chick, I like this girl already.

My piano instructor wanted to experiment with the Suzuki technique. I told her I didn’t think she’d be able to keep the piano under her chin.

I was worried Bleeb got run over…That front tire looks suspicious!

I learned the Suzuki technique on a RM125.
