Suzuki Other description

  Up for auction is a 1972 Suzuki TS400J "Apache". This the first year for this model. I have just completed a frame-off restoration on it,and it looks great. The frame was powder coated "Trail Performance" and the head and exhaust was "ceramic"coated. The wiring and all nuts and bolts were cleaned and polished. The seat has been recovered and a new chain installed. The carb was cleaned and a new throttle cable installed. "Suzuki" mirrors were found and added on . The paint is new on tank,fenders,and side covers done by "Steve Rhoades Paint". The headlight does work,but only on low beam. The exhaust tip "Stinger" is missing, but I do have a new exhaust gasket and clamp for it. (If anyone has one to sell , let me know! I would gladly purchase it.) The head gasket was also replaced. This bike also has the "Original" tool kit , but no owners manual. I purchased the bike from the second owner who had owned it for 15 years. The buyer is responsible for any pick-up arrangements. I can help on this end some , but will not crate the bike. Im sure Im forgetting something so if you have questions feel free to email me or call me at (402)990-2542. Thanks for looking!

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.
