Updated Pictures! Sorry for the delay in posting them - New pics show the bike as it sits with bar-end mirrors, front fender mounted, etc.

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.

On to the original ad:

Up for sale is my 1997 Suzuki TL1000S. 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 and rear 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! Any questions, just ask.

Are Motorcycles Safer With Antilock Brakes?

Tue, 30 Dec 2008

A new report says riders with ABS-equipped bikes can dramatically reduce the chance of a fatal accident. The study compared fatality rates among riders on bikes that have antilock brakes, and it found that death rates were 38% lower on motorcycles equipped with the optional ABS systems compared to non-ABS bikes. In 2005-2006, the fatal crashes per 10,000 registered motorcycles without antilock brakes was 6.6.

2014 AMA Supercross – Toronto Results

Mon, 24 Mar 2014

James Stewart captured his series-leading fourth AMA Supercross 450 class win of the season, giving him sole possession of second place on the overall career wins list ahead of Ricky Carmichael and behind Jeremy McGrath. The win also helped Stewart gain some ground on points leader Ryan Villopoto who suffered from a bout of food poisoning. Villopoto was examined at a Toronto hospital and released in time for the opening ceremonies.

GSX-R600 and CBR250R the glass is half full

Wed, 13 Oct 2010

Suzuki’s GSX-R600 might not look that much different to the outgoing model but I suspect this bike could be very much a dark horse in 2011. I say this because two years ago I was definitely not building my hopes up en route to the K9 GSXR 1000 launch. The leaked pictures suggested the biggest change from the 2007 version would be some fresh graphics but I was so wrong.  As it turned out, I was greeted in Almeria with a brand new bike, built from the tarmac up and it proved to be more than a match in every department for the much hyped 2009 Yamaha R1.
