Suzuki Other description
These are great bikes and I purchased this one a while back to have as a second bike but I almost never ride it and it needs to go somewhere that it will see some use. My other bike is another 97 TLS that I've owned for 7 years and have done a ton of work to, so having two is just not needed.
Only 10k miles, I purchased from the original owner and haven't used it hardly at all - less than 200 miles. Runs great - probably stronger than my other TL, Yoshimura bolt-on exhaust, K&N filter, otherwise stock. Just got it back from the painters - painted a really nice gunmetal gray that was done very nicely.
Tires probably have 50% life left, front brakes were just bled, fresh oil change, chain was just adjusted/lubed. Ready to ride! Great shape. It's hard to find a clean example of these TL's with such low mileage!
Updated Pictures! This is the probably the most "purple" hue I've ever seen out of the paint. I think it was just the way that the camera captured the color with it being a very sunny day like it was. Refer to the last picture for what I'd consider to be the truest representation of the color. It is definitely a gunmetal grey, not purple at all.
I do have a lot of spare TL parts from owning them for the past 7 years - If there's anything you need or would like to go with the bike just let me know and we can make it happen.
Forgot to mention - TB's just synchronized, brand new spark plugs, and upgraded to coils from a 2008 SV650 (direct swap but a better spark)
The only things that aren't in GREAT shape about the bike:
- Tiny slit in the riders seat - 1/4" long.
- The Yoshi cans are in fair condition - If I were keeping the bike I would refinish them, but I'll leave that choice (finish type, color, etc...) up to the buyer.
- Small scuff on the side cover
- The windscreen is a bit hazy and has some light scuffs. It's condition can be seen from the pictures.
Keep in mind, this is a USED bike. In listing those things I'm trying to be explicit about everything with the bike so that I am fully representing the condition of the bike. It really is in great shape and I think whoever buys this bike will be extremely pleased with it.

2020 Suzuki V-Strom 1050XT Review – First Ride
Tue, 04 Feb 2020ADV for Everyman, now with more power and cruise control Credit: Photos by Suzuki and John Burns How can any red-blooded American not love Suzuki, the blue-collar working motorcycle so many of us thrashed as youths, left parked in alleys with no loss of sleep, covered in fur for a brief period there in the (I think) ’90s… In spite of all the abuse we dished out, Suzuki’s loyalty was never in question. 2020 Suzuki V-Strom 1050XT Editor Score: 88% Engine 18.0/20 Suspension/Handling 13.0/15 Transmission/Clutch 9.0/10 Brakes 8.5/10 Instruments/Controls 4.0/5 Ergonomics/Comfort 9.5/10 Appearance/Quality 8.5/10 Desirability 8.5/10 Value 9.0/10 Overall Score 88/100 2020 Suzuki V-Strom 1050 First Look Of all the GSX-Rs, GSX-Fs, SVs, RMs and TLs that have graced the editorial garage, I think the big V-Strom has emerged as my favorite, even if it wasn’t clear what role the first DL1000 was supposed to play in 2002? Back then, it was all about the GSX-R.
