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.

2014 AMA Supercross – Oakland Results

Mon, 27 Jan 2014

With three different racers tasting victory in the first three rounds of the 2014 AMA Supercross Championship, the season was shaping up to be one of the deepest and most competitive fields we’ve seen. But at Round Four at O.o Coliseum in Oakland, Calif., Ryan Villopoto showed why he remains the top dog, leading each lap for his second win of the season. The Kawasaki rider only trailed at the very start of the race, as Honda rider Vince Friese took the holeshot with Yamaha‘s Justin Brayton slotting in second through the first corner.

Metzeler Z8 wins Motorrad award

Tue, 10 Apr 2012

METZELER'S Z8 Interact sports-touring tyre has been classed as the best wet weather sports-touring tyre by the German Motorrad TestCenter. Metzeler decided to develop new compounds for the Roadtec Z8 Interact precisely to meet these needs, tyres with the specific goal of providing riders not only the most recent technological solutions available in the area of wet performance, but also the possibility of having a tyre with a wide range of use that represents the new standard in terms of performance in any weather conditions, from wet and cold to hot and dry. The criteria considered in the wet test by Motorrad TestCenter have been: steering precision and characteristics, line holding during acceleration, ease of handling, grip at lean angle for front and rear tyres, grip during acceleration, limit range characteristics, feedback at lean angle, braking stability during full braking with ABS.
