I bought this bike new off the showroom floor in 2006 when I was a young punk ass kid with no sense. Since then, I've barely ridden the bike at all (hence the mileage), but always refused to get rid of it because I bought it new. I rode this 2 times last season, and I've finally decided it's time for this to go to somebody who can actually enjoy it. I'd also like to free up some cash flow to dump into other projects I still have an interest in.
Bad:
The bike has only ever been down one time. I dropped it on the right side at about 20mph during an emergency stop where I locked the back tire and slid it on its side off pavement into a grass median. The damage was all cosmetic, most of which I've repaired. As a result, the right side faring was replaced and is all black. There is still some scratches on the clutch cover and exhaust shield. I have the new parts to replace them, I'm just haven't done the work (the replacment parts will be included with the sale). The only other thing wrong with the bike is a small crack in the front stay bracket where the mirror mounts. The bracket is made of some kind of crappy pot metal, and broke when I torqued one of the new mirrors down. The bracket still holds firm, so I never felt the need to replace it. These are the ONLY issues with the bike. I'd rate the paint a 7 out of 10. If I kept the bike, I'd paint it.
Good:
I've owned this bike since it was brand new with 2 miles on the clock. The first couple services were done by the Suzuki dealer as recommended by the dealer for warranty purposes (you'll get the receipts). Since then, it has been maintained religiously by me. This bike runs and rides like new. Everything on the bike works, and it needs absolutely nothing. The bike is fast as f***, plenty fast enough for any grown man to kill themselves on twice over. It's stock for the most part, with a few exceptions:
Mods:
Fairly new Bridgestone Battlax BT-023 Sport Touring tires
RK 520 chain conversion with Vortex sprockets (1 tooth up in the rear and 1 tooth down in the front)
K&N air filter
GSXR weighted bar ends
Brand new AGM battery
Rear fender eliminator
Aftermarket mirrors
Extras:
Straight pipe racetrack exhaust
Brand new set of Bridgestone Battlax BT-016 Pro Hypersport/Track tires
Lowering links and chopped kickstand
905 Racing/stunt crash cage
Spare clutch cover
Spare exhaust shield
Rear passenger seat
Rear seat cowl
Factory fender hugger
Misc extra body panels
A set of front sprockets
Original complete factory tool kit
Original owners manual
Original purchase sticker and other associated paperwork.
I'd like $4,000 for everything. Everything goes, and I'm firm on my asking price. Clean California title in my name ready to be signed over to to the new owner. Test rides welcomed only after I see your class M endorsement and I have cash in hand. Thanks for looking.
And a few pics of me on the Bike in its heyday (straight pipe racetrack exhaust pictured)
