Suzuki GS description

Up for auction is this 1985 Suzuki GS1150E. The bike has been used as a drag racing machine since previous owner bought in 2009. Was raced regularly in the street bike category at Tri-State Raceway in Earlville Iowa and was 1st in points for 2013, 2nd in in 2012 and 2011, 12th in 2010. From what I am told this machine was a low 10 second bike. Owner died and this is one of the last of his bikes to be sold. As I find any more info out I will post. Things I do know the bike has are the Vance and Hines competition only exhaust, Mikuni RS series carburetors, lengthened and polished swingarm, Dyna shift light and RPM minder. I do not if any internal work has been done to the engine. It does fire right up and feels very strong. Body is in good condition and has been the black and maroon it is now. The right side cover has a front tab that was repaired and the left needs the rear tab repaired. Seat lock does not work, you can still pull cable to release. Front Pirelli Sport Demon tire has good tread. Rear Shinko tire looks to be about half tread. Every thing seems to be working fine at this time. Hasn't been used the last year and a half or so, may need some fine tuning/adjustments by new owner. Bike does have a previous Salvage title. I do not know the extent of damage received or when. Located in Dubuque Iowa and can be viewed anytime by appointment. Bike will need to be paid cash upon pick up by winning bidder with a $100 deposit due within 24 hours of auction end, bike to be picked up and paid for within 7 days of auction end. If you are planning to ship the bike I can be available for shipper and payment arrangements need to be planned ahead of time.
