Suzuki Other description
These are great bikes and I purchased this one a while back to have as a second bike but I almost never ride it and it needs to go somewhere that it will see some use. My other bike is another 97 TLS that I've owned for 7 years and have done a ton of work to, so having two is just not needed.
Only 10k miles, I purchased from the original owner and haven't used it hardly at all - less than 200 miles. Runs great - probably stronger than my other TL, Yoshimura bolt-on exhaust, K&N filter, otherwise stock. Just got it back from the painters - painted a really nice gunmetal gray that was done very nicely.
Tires probably have 50% life left, front brakes were just bled, fresh oil change, chain was just adjusted/lubed. Ready to ride! Great shape. It's hard to find a clean example of these TL's with such low mileage!
Updated Pictures! This is the probably the most "purple" hue I've ever seen out of the paint. I think it was just the way that the camera captured the color with it being a very sunny day like it was. Refer to the last picture for what I'd consider to be the truest representation of the color. It is definitely a gunmetal grey, not purple at all.
I do have a lot of spare TL parts from owning them for the past 7 years - If there's anything you need or would like to go with the bike just let me know and we can make it happen.
Forgot to mention - TB's just synchronized, brand new spark plugs, and upgraded to coils from a 2008 SV650 (direct swap but a better spark)
The only things that aren't in GREAT shape about the bike:
- Tiny slit in the riders seat - 1/4" long.
- The Yoshi cans are in fair condition - If I were keeping the bike I would refinish them, but I'll leave that choice (finish type, color, etc...) up to the buyer.
- Small scuff on the side cover
- The windscreen is a bit hazy and has some light scuffs. It's condition can be seen from the pictures.
Keep in mind, this is a USED bike. In listing those things I'm trying to be explicit about everything with the bike so that I am fully representing the condition of the bike. It really is in great shape and I think whoever buys this bike will be extremely pleased with it.

Teaser: 2012 Japanese Literbike Shootout – Video
Thu, 29 Mar 2012The 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.
