Suzuki GS description

This is a 1981 Suzuki GS 1100 E "Superbike" that is street legal. Owned and built by the original owner who was an aerospace engineer and 30 year respected racer. Only the best components of the day were used in the build. The bike sat for many years until recently. It was given a fresh battery, the 33 mm Mikuni Smoothbore carburetors were disassembled and sonically cleaned before being reinstalled. New Dunlops were mounted and Fresh oil and filter were added as well as new fork seals and fork oil.  The gas tank (clean /no rust) was drained and fresh fuel was added. The bike fired up instantly and ran as new. The bike pulls as hard as any modern liter bike with stump pulling power. Amazing. If you have ever wondered what it would be like to own an early 1980's, fire breathing superbike, this is it.  It's the real deal, ready to be ridden through your favorite canyons, ridden to a bike night or to compete in a vintage superbike race.

Here are some of the components: Earls oil cooler, custom rear sets, vented ignition cover, 13" Mark Zero front discs,"Lockheed" front calipers, 18" EPM Magnesium wheels, Full stainless Supertrapp exhaust, hand fabricated rear licence plate bracket, Stewart Warner oil temp and pressure gauges. Huge front fork brace, steel braided lines, aircraft fasteners throughout, Gerix multi fire ignition, Accel coil, Fox Superbike shocks, Cal -Fab aluminum swingarm, superbike bars drilled rear disc and relocated caliper. Original seat and paint and the list goes on.

All the recent work was performed by Curt Jordan (Jordan Engineering) and Chris Redpath (Moto GP Werks). Both, professional old school superbike gurus. 

A $1000.00 non-refundable deposit is due at the end of the auction (Pay Pal is fine). Cash or wire deposit for the balance within five days.  Shipping and all cost will be the responsibility of the buyer and I will make myself available for the convenience of the shipper.  This motorcycle is for sale only to buyers within the U.S. 

This bike is a real piece of history that tells you a story when you look at it and when you ride it, it makes sure you were listening. This motorcycle is absolutely not for an inexperienced or new rider but if you want something unbelievably unique that stands out from the crowd and will put a huge smile on your face, this is it.  Good luck !

R&G announce cheaper engine case cover kits

Tue, 06 Sep 2011

R&G Racing has reacted to the rising cost of official motorcycle parts from manufacturers by creating money saving packages on its Engine Case Covers.As a reaction to the parts price rise, the crash protection leader has created a kit package on its Engine Case Covers (ECC) – offering an overall saving of more than 10% when compared to buying the items individually. The ECCs are designed to protect the engine cases and the inner workings of the motor in the event of a drop by acting as a sturdy ‘second skin’.By simply bolting over the original items, fitting the durable Engine Case Covers doesn’t require draining any engine fluids or replacing gaskets. Extensively developed in the ACU R&G Racing Suzuki GSX-R600 Trophy, as well as being tested and approved by the California Superbike School in the UK and USA, the covers can allow a bike to be ridden after a crash or prevent terminal engine damage from oil leaks or casing punctures.Protection benefits aside, financial savings for riders are evident by looking at official parts prices; to replace only the clutch cover on a Suzuki GSX-R1000K7 would cost £206 including a new gasket, but all three R&G Engine Case Covers for this bike cost only £143.

WSBK 2013: Portimao Race Report

Mon, 10 Jun 2013

Marco Melandri and Eugene Laverty split a pair of victories at Portugal’s Portimao circuit while Sylvain Guintoli took advantage of some misfortune to his championship rivals to increase his lead in the 2013 World Superbike Championship standings. Guintoli has been leading or sharing the lead in the championship since winning the first race of Round 1 in Australia, but amazingly continues to lead despite having just that single victory after six rounds. The Aprilia rider has accomplished this through his consistency (Guintoli leads all racers with nine podium finishes in 12 races) and ability to finish each race (he’s the only rider in the top seven without a DNF).
