Suzuki RM description

This motorcycle is in excellent condition and is NOT a restoration. Everything is original with the exception of a new Wiseco piston and a new DG silencer.

I am the 4th owner. The motorcycle was purchased by a gentleman for his grandson to ride on his farm during summer visits. The kid rode the bike a couple of times and was scared of it so it sat for a couple of years before being sold to a soldier at Fort Bragg, NC. This young man rode the bike a couple of times and sold it to the local dealerships mechanic, who went through the entire bike and felt that it needed a new piston and rings. It is still on the original bore and he told me that it has approximately 10 hours of run time based on his 30 years of experience. The bike has sat in his garage for the past 11 years. I purchased it from him in July 2012. I have ridden the bike 4 times just around the yard to keep everything lubed.

 The tires are the originals from the dealer showroom and while they are worn they still have plenty of tread left or you can install a new set of Dunlop tires that I will include with the winning bid. The plastic is all original including the fork leg protectors which are almost impossible to find now. I have a complete set of new OEM plastic and fork boots,OEM number plate backgrounds and a set of aftermarket plastics in case you want to ride or race the bike and save the originals. The forks and rear shock are in excellent condition with no leaking seals. The rims and spokes are immaculate as well as the grips and control levers. The brakes work like new and the bars are straight and original also. It even has all of the original rubber pieces under the seat and fender. The exhaust pipe is dent free and still has the original paint as does the engine. The bike starts on the 2nd kick when cold and first kick every time when warm.
I will include 2 copies of motorcycle magazines that test the bike from 1985 and the dealership set up manual to the winning bidder.

 The only issues are: the seat has a 1 inch tear next to the mounting bolt, the original plastics have some average wear and scuffs and the paint has a few chips and scuffs. All from the roughly 10 hours of total run time on the entire bike.

There is no title for the motorcycle but I will include a bill of sale to the winning bidder. This is a 28 year old original motorcycle so I cannot warranty or guarantee any parts.

I would rate this motorcycle as a 9 out of 10 as I have not seen a better condition, unrestored 1985 RM125.
Feel free to contact me with any questions and happy bidding!

Rainy BSB tests are nothing new

Mon, 25 Mar 2013

THE combination of bad weather in the UK and a European testing ban means that most BSB teams will now start the season with very little track time. This sounds like a disaster for the top teams but history has proved this isn’t necessarily true and it sometimes doesn’t matter how much pre season preparation has taken place.  Back in 2002 Sean Emmett won on the IFC Ducati at the opening Silverstone round after first riding it in unofficial practice the same weekend. Steve Hislop took the other win on Pauls Bird’s well sorted Ducati. More recently in 2009, Leon Camier took an untested new model R1 Yamaha to victory at the Brands Hatch opener after GSE took delivery of the bike just the week before. Sylvain Guintoli won the other race on a well developed, well tested Crescent Suzuki. You could argue if no one has had testing then it is a level playing field but you have to feel for riders moving up to the superbike class in the world’s toughest national series.  Tyco Suzuki’s PJ Jacobson is one such rider but having spent some time with him over the past few weeks he seems to be taking it all in his stride. It may be the confidence of youth or maybe the fact he has won in every other class he has entered in his short BSB career, but I suspect he fancies at least standing on the Superbike podium at Brands (He also does a bit of ice racing which is not dissimilar to the this year’s UK testing).  The testing ban was implemented with all the best cost cutting intentions and if it had been any other year in the past decade all would be well. The teams may be feeling frustrated but the fans should be excited. With so many unknowns, the 2013 BSB opener at Brands Hatch could be the best ever!

Craigslist Motorcycle Rip-Off

Thu, 12 Feb 2009

Eduardo S. Cordero III, 22, allegedly robbed three Sierra Vista men at gunpoint in Tucson. Cordero advertised a Suzuki GSX-R motorcycle that evidently didn’t exist, on Craigslist for $4,000 and lured the buyers in by taking $500 off the listed price.

Goodbye RM85 Suzuki

Tue, 10 May 2011

An old friend dropped in this weekend, on his way back from an arse-killing 4,500 mile ride to Estoril and back to watch the MotoGP race. He has only ever ridden Harley chops and old stuff with the exception of his vague nod at practicality and modernity - an ancient, very, very high mileage R1100GS BMW. I made him a brew and some pasta arrabiatta then made him ride my 2011 Fireblade.
