Suzuki motorcycles for sale in Santa Monica, California

2001 Suzuki INTRUDER VOLUSIA

$1,400

Santa Monica, California

Moving away and selling my bike. Asking for $1,400 OBO. Was an excellent upgrade bike for me. Handles like a pro. She's been my only form of transportation since I got'er a over a year ago. Have had a lot of maintenance done on her. Both sets of brake pads, tail light, and regulator recently replaced. Full service, including valve adjustment, recently done. Runs like a beauty. Added a passenger seat, but I still have the plastic shell part if you want to swap it. I have no idea what is and isn't stock, otherwise. In the interest of transparency, she can be finicky to start up sometimes, but I haven't been unable to start her since having the work done. She does have a minor leak right beneath the engine. Can't tell if it's gas or oil. Been like that since I got her and hasn't been a problem. The right foot rest and rear brake pedal are bent a little, but there's no functional impact. Happy to meet at a mechanic to get her checked out before finalizing the transaction. Happy to allow a test ride with license as collateral. Title clean and in-hand. Cash or cashier's check only, please. I will call the bank to verify any cashier's check. All the typical legit stuff. I have two helmets and head-to-toe gear I'll throw in as well. Can't take it with me. The gloves and jacket are dinged up from an accident on my first bike, but the pants and boots are in good shape. If you don't take the gear, it's going in the trash :-/ (Though any other recommendations are appreciated) Feel free to ask any questions.

Suzuki : GSX-R 1985 suzuki gsx r 750 first year excellent condition runs perfectly

$7,900

Santa Monica, California

Fast and now very collectible! 1985 Suzuki GSXR750 Frame number: JS1GR75A9G2100475 Engine number: RX05 115955 Suzuki rewrote the 750-class rulebook when it launched the GSX-R750 on an unsuspecting world back in 1985. The 'Gixxer's development had been heavily influenced by lessons learned from the works TT F1 and Endurance racers of the late 1970s and early 1980s; lighter than a 600 and as powerful as a 1000, it made all other super-sports 750s seem flabby and slow. One of the modern era's few instant classics and the sole surviving Japanese 750cc sports bike, the GSX-R750 has been a huge commercial success for Suzuki and enjoys cult status today. The GSX-R750 was, and is, a superb machine and an excellent example of Japanese motorcycle engineering at its most refined. Hiroshi Fujiwara, who was in charge of the basic layout of this first model, vividly recalls the excitement of his team at the beginning of the project. "This pure Supersport model was our first 750cc bike featuring an aluminum frame of unprecedented light weight and superb torsional rigidity. We had no real competitors in the market, other than factory racing machines." The oil-cooled 4-stroke, 4-cylinder engine of the GSX-R750 delivered more than 100bhp in a 395lb package. That’s the power of a 1-liter bike in the weight of a 400!! Suzuki's new 750 performed admirably in the AMA Superbike Championship and FIM World Endurance Championship and quickly became the racebike of choice among private riders worldwide, thanks to durability and affordability. When American rider Kevin Schwantz rode the GSX-R750 into second place at the 1986 AMA Daytona 200, his name became synonymous with the machine. Victories in AMA Championship and the Le Mans and Bol d'Or 24-hour endurance events soon followed, to anchor the beginning of GSX-R750's winning history. Presented here is the earliest version of the legendary Suzuki GSX-R750 family, the increasing desirability of which has seen values climb steadily in recent years. An early ’85 model, it is the actual bike featured in the “25 years of the GSXR” shoot out in the June 2011 edition of Motorcyclist Magazine, a copy of which is included in the sale. The bike runs exceptionally well. It starts easily, idles well and has great power delivery. It shifts through all gears perfectly with a good clutch. Suspension feels taut and the brakes work very well, front and rear. Cosmetically the bike is in good condition with only very minor scuffs on a bike with 17,000 miles, that is 32 years old. Testament to the meticulous care of the machine. The bike comes with a clean, clear California title. These are not bikes for the inexperienced or faint-hearted, with huge wheelie-popping performance on tap as the revs rise.
