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.

John Hopkins British Superbike Round 2 Rundown

Tue, 06 May 2014

The Tyco Suzuki team is looking ahead to next week’s International North West 200 after a tough weekend at Oulton Park during round two of the British Superbike Championship. American John Hopkins took ninth place in Monday’s second race at the Cheshire venue after retiring from the opening encounter in the closing stages due to a problem sensor, which caused an intermittent misfire on his Tyco Suzuki GSX-R1000 Superbike. His team-mate Josh Waters took a brace of 13th-place finishes for his Oulton Park efforts and despite his obvious disappointment, the Australian did significantly improve his lap times from his visit in 2013.

WSBK: 2011 Utah Results

Tue, 31 May 2011

Carlos Checa extended his lead in the 2011 World Superbike Championship, winning both races at Utah’s Miller Motorsports Park. The Althea Ducati racer recorded his second double of the season and now has six wins in ten races. Checa also scored the double in Utah in 2008 when Miller Motorsports Park made its debut on the WSBK calendar.

John Reynolds on the latest Gixers, BSB and Loose Women

Tue, 21 Feb 2012

When John Reynolds was pushing me hard in the late nineties for BSB titles he was always polite and would happily stop to chew the fat and talk about the weather. But that was the limit of our friendship as he never wanted to like rivals too much, just in case it affected his competitive edge. These days, he has no great desire to barge me off the track at Redgate or Cascades so when our paths cross we happily spend time sorting out the problems of the world.
