Long Time, No Write.

So since I last wrote, I had picked up a nice, restorable 1987 Suzuki GSX-R1100. I put it right in storage with the Honda NT650 Hawk for now, speaking of which, I was finally able to track down a fuel tank so I can bring it home and start working on it.

In other news, I picked up a very low mileage Suzuki Bandit 400. It has just 6,200 miles! It's been sitting for a few years but it has a clean title.

The seller gave me all of the items like the tank and air box.
I fiddled with it for a couple days. Realized it wasn't getting spark and the leads had broken coming off the ignition pick up so I resoldered them and now it gets spark. I think the carbs are the culprit now.



At any rate, I sold the moped for a small profit.

I had my fun with it so it was time to move on.

I took the profit plus some cash and bought this.

Bad pic, it was all I could muster in the seller's cramped garage. It's a 1996 Suzuki GSX-R1100 which is pretty close to original condition with the exception of a full Kerker exhaust with twin (!) exits. While not the most sought after series, it still holds a place in many people's hearts.As of right now, it is just going to be a flip. I got it for a decent price.

In other news, I registered and insure the 1994 Honda CBR900RR I bought back last fall. Rebuilt the carburetors and it runs flawlessly.

I still have the 1997 Suzuki GSX-R600 I put the motor in. Hoping to have that sold soon so I can put the money toward other flips.

Until next time,
See you on the road!
