Suzuki GS description

I picked this 850G up last year as a weekend ride.   It had about 12,300 miles on it and I changed all the fluids and installed new rubber.   I also just recently installed a sealed lead acid battery.

Everything on the bike works as it should including the self cancelling turn signals, the fuel gauge, the lights and horn etc. etc.    The seat lock works - there's no tool tray.

Mechanically she's very sound and revs properly up to redline.   She also tracks very well on the highway at speed.    Just a very solid example of this great inline 4 motor.

Seat is in great shape with no rips.

Cosmetically she's above average as well with some areas as shown in the photos:
1) little scratches on the tank - probably from a tank bag
2) typical pitting of the clear coat on the engine case
3) she fell down at some point in her history - as shown by the crack on the left side of the gauge cluster.  No other damage that I can see - all turn signal stalks etc are straight 

All in all a very nice example of the GS850G - it gets lots of compliments.       I've started commuting 60 miles round trip each day so I've bought a new commute bike, that's why I'm letting her go.

Title is clear CA and in my name.   I can work with your shipper as needed.

K-Tech release 25SSK for Big Piston Forks

Mon, 21 May 2012

K-Tech have released their popular 25SSK front fork open cartridge system to fit all Showa Big Piston Forks. Here's what K-Tech have to say about them: These lightweight aluminium units are supplied to the same exacting specification as all other 25SSK fitments with 14mm piston rods and a 25mm cartridge tube, the 14mm piston rods displace a large volume of oil through the 25mm control pistons giving enhanced damping characteristics over the standard Big Piston Fork and allow a bigger volume of air for a more precise feel at the bottom of the fork travel. The cartridge kits have compression and rebound adjustment in both legs and are supplied with 1.5mm Flow Control Valves for a more accurate adjustment, all necessary hardware is supplied to convert the Big Piston Forks to take the cartridges but it is necessary to order the springs you require as these are not included, customer price for the 25SSK cartridges is £725.00 + VAT and are available for the following models:- Honda CBR1000RR 2012 Kawasaki ZX6-R 2009-2012 Kawasaki ZX10-R 2011-2012 Suzuki GSXR600 2011-2012 Suzuki GSXR1000 2009-2012 Contact K-Tech on: +44(0)1283 559007.

Suzuki GW250 Inazuma Reportedly Coming to Canada

Tue, 30 Oct 2012

The Suzuki Inazuma is coming to Canada, according to multiple reports. The entry-level motorcycle was displayed at a recent dealer meeting in Mont Tremblant, Quebec, though it appears Canadians may have to wait as bit longer for the Inazuma to arrive in showrooms. According to Canadian sites CMGOnline and MotorcycleMojo, Suzuki is in the initial stages of introducing the 248cc streetbike to Canada, so a 2014 launch may be more likely than 2013 availability.
