Suzuki SV description

Like new, low-mileage 1997 Suzuki TL1000S

I am the original and only owner from new. The bike has not been ridden very much, but regularly, on the proverbial sunny Sundays.
Always kept in a heated garage. Never raced, wheelied or otherwise abused. Never crashed or even dropped.

Only 10,500 kms (6,200 miles).
Engine has never been worked on, other than oil (synthetic) and filter changes by the dealer.

Completely original - except that the bars were replaced with Heli-bars (a little higher and closer, but using the original cables, and the original handlebars are included, so you can replace them if you want it 100% stock . . . my middle-aged back and wrists preferred these). The tires were replaced due to age and have less than 1,000 kms on them. The battery was replaced a year or so ago. As the pictures show, both the original passenger saddle and the solo-saddle back cowl are included.

The pictures give you a very accurate understanding of the bike's condition. The bodywork is perfect and the paint is close to perfect, with a very few surface scratches here and there due to tank bag, etc. The seats are perfect (I mostly rode using a Corbin aftermarket seat, which is available separately if the buyer is interested), so the original has not even been sat on much.

The bike starts immediately and
runs perfectly. The fuel injection (after the factory re-mapping after the first month the bike was released) seems spot-on, no stumbling or flat spots, just smooth, easy-to-access power. The motor is delightful -- lots of big-twin grunt down low, building to a smooth high-end power peak. The bike is not a brand-new 150hp supersport bike, but it always had more power than I could use on the road. The brakes are perfect, and work as new. No oil leaks, or any issues of any kind. The bike comes with an Ontario safety certification.

The bike is located in downtown Toronto. I'm happy to deliver it in the GTA in return for a ride back to a subway stop. Full cash payment required on close of sale.

Please check my feedback -- I have been a very long-time eBayer with a perfect track record.
If you have any questions at all, please just ask.

Teaser: 2012 Japanese Literbike Shootout – Video

Thu, 29 Mar 2012

The last time we assembled the superbike offerings from the Big Four Japanese manufacturers to determine the alpha male model was 2009. The CBR won that confrontation, but a lot’s changed since then. For 2012 Honda revamped the CBR1000RR, Yamaha added traction control to the R1, the GSX-R1000 lost a muffler and last year Kawasaki introduced an all-new ZX-10R.
