Suzuki SV description

Like new, low-mileage 1997 Suzuki TL1000S

I am the original and only owner from new. The bike has not been ridden very much, but regularly, on the proverbial sunny Sundays.
Always kept in a heated garage. Never raced, wheelied or otherwise abused. Never crashed or even dropped.

Only 10,500 kms (6,200 miles).
Engine has never been worked on, other than oil (synthetic) and filter changes by the dealer.

Completely original - except that the bars were replaced with Heli-bars (a little higher and closer, but using the original cables, and the original handlebars are included, so you can replace them if you want it 100% stock . . . my middle-aged back and wrists preferred these). The tires were replaced due to age and have less than 1,000 kms on them. The battery was replaced a year or so ago. As the pictures show, both the original passenger saddle and the solo-saddle back cowl are included.

The pictures give you a very accurate understanding of the bike's condition. The bodywork is perfect and the paint is close to perfect, with a very few surface scratches here and there due to tank bag, etc. The seats are perfect (I mostly rode using a Corbin aftermarket seat, which is available separately if the buyer is interested), so the original has not even been sat on much.

The bike starts immediately and
runs perfectly. The fuel injection (after the factory re-mapping after the first month the bike was released) seems spot-on, no stumbling or flat spots, just smooth, easy-to-access power. The motor is delightful -- lots of big-twin grunt down low, building to a smooth high-end power peak. The bike is not a brand-new 150hp supersport bike, but it always had more power than I could use on the road. The brakes are perfect, and work as new. No oil leaks, or any issues of any kind. The bike comes with an Ontario safety certification.

The bike is located in downtown Toronto. I'm happy to deliver it in the GTA in return for a ride back to a subway stop. Full cash payment required on close of sale.

Please check my feedback -- I have been a very long-time eBayer with a perfect track record.
If you have any questions at all, please just ask.

2015 Suzuki RM-Z250 and RM85

Fri, 16 May 2014

Along with the launch of the new RM-Z450, Suzuki announced the return of the RM-Z250 and RM85 for 2015. Both smaller motocrossers return unchanged, though the slightly larger RM85L variant was not announced for the new model year. The 2015 Suzuki RM-Z250 retains the same 249cc liquid-cooled Single as the 2014 model including the swappable EFI couplers for selecting richer or leaner fueling.

Dropped Suzuki Dealerships Represented Only 2.5% of Retail Sales

Fri, 22 Mar 2013

American Suzuki raised some eyebrows after news broke yesterday the company was cancelling franchise agreements with numerous dealerships in the U.S. The company was already under close scrutiny after making the bold decision to quit selling cars to focus on powersports when it filed for Chapter 11 in November. Reducing its dealer network appears to go against that idea, at least on the surface.

It was good to catch up with my old mate Daryl Beattie last weekend in Misano. Daryl was pushing Mick Doohan hard for the 500cc World Championship in 1995 until he high sided and broke his collar bone in Assen mid way through the year. He eventually finished runner up in the series but then some fairly big tumbles from his Lucky Strike Suzuki in 1996 brought his career to a premature end.
