1972 Suzuki T500j, Matching Numbers, Ground-up Restoration on 2040-motos

Suzuki Other description

  This is a beautiful example of a 1972 Suzuki T500J.I found this bike on ebay in January ,at the " Hornung Cycle and Power Sports" in Hubbard ,Iowa.  When picking up the bike,the owner of the business advised me that he had sold this bike brand neww to the guy I was getting it from. The frame number is #T500-56423 and the engine number is also T500-56423. This is a complete ground-up restoration that was just completed is restored inside and out,and runs great. I have a long list of items that were replaced with NOS original equipment parts. The chrome was also cleaned and the rear fender/mufflers/pipes were rechromed.The brakes,fork,seals,tires,tubes,battery,chain,sprockets,left hand switch,and headlight were replaced. The motor was taken completely apart by my local Suzuki dealer and gone through. New pistons,rings,crank seals, shifter shaft,carb intake boots,carbs rebuilt and tuned. The tank and side covers were professionally painted by "Steve Rhoades Painting"and the frame and parts were powder coated by "Trail Performance in Omaha,NE.The list goes on and will be included with the bike. This bike also has the tool kit and owners manual. I have a lot of time and cash invested in this,but have set my reserve at how much cash I actually have in it. I do a couple of bikes per year to occupy my time, now that Im retired. I have won numerous bike shows over the last few years with them. Please feel free to call me with questions at (402)990-2542 or email me. (*Also- I am currently doing a '72 Suzuki TS400 Apache and am looking for a exhaust tip (stinger) for it.See other items.)  Veicle is sold "As-Is" and the buyer is responsible for shipping arrangements and costs. I will help on this end as much as possible,but I cannot crate the bike. Thanks. Relisting because of buyer changing his mind.
