Suzuki cruiser thumper.... That's an S40/LS650/Savage. I'd ride one, but even I think they're small :rolf:

Ryca makes decent kits for them though.

Savage

He sent me a pic of it next to an early 2000s ford taurus and I could immediately tell it was tiny as fuck :rolf:

Had it been a little bigger, and a twin (Side by side, not v-twin, I have a deep hatred for japanese v-twins :lol: ) I would've considered because it was in good shape, I could've put drag bars on it and blacked it out, but it was minibike sized so screw that :lol:

Yeah... Some guy had a chopped up one at bike night and parked next to the C70. Seat height was roughly the same :rolf:

:lol:

A deep hatred for Japanese *Cruiser v-twins, especially carbureted ones, because they cram those motherfuckers in between the cylinders.

Compliments of one of these pieces of shit :lol:

 

[94RS]

Not sure why, but that made me think of the old Eliminator 900/1000.

For a cruiser, I'd ride the s*** out of it. The Ninja engine probably has something to do with it :rolf:


Anyway, where does the CX fall in your hatred of Japanese V-Twin cruisers with its wannabe Moto Guzzi engine?

They make pretty decent cafe's

And then there's this spaceship :rolf:

 

[R13]

Never been around one but it looks like a turd so I'll pass :lol:

Nice vtr sp2 :mrgreen:

 

[R13]

Add some united motors 250 piece of junk and an '82 kz550 to this list of offers.

80's Virago's seem to be catching on too.

Was it a standard 550, LTD or a GPZ?

 

[R13]

Standard.

Just got an offer for a pretty clean 09 klx250sf, worth considering?

He hasn't texted me back, but this is it.

 

[94RS]

You're desperate if you're seriously considering a 250, street model or not :lol: They only do like 75.

 

[R13]

I wouldn't say desperate, I'm just trying to get rid of this shit integra and get something to ride that's not total junk.

You think anyone's gonna offer something better? I mean the car's only worth like 1500-2k :lol:

 

[94RS]

I mean, if you're that serious about the 2fiddy, you could at least throw on a 351 big bore on in the future that way it doesn't struggle to get the front wheel up... I've heard they're pathetic in stock form.

But I still think you'd be a bit large for the bike. I think the seat height is only like two inches higher than my Firebolt.

 

[R13]

Yeah it's a smallish bike.

I wouldn't say I'm serious about it, but it's kinda nice, digital gauge cluster, electric start, inverted forks.

What I'm really thinking is that it's a goofy ass little bike that looks kinda cool, that I could fuck around on, and it would be dirt cheap to insure. :lol:

But he also has to text me back first :rolf:

 

[94RS]

Might be worth it the, idfk. It's your call anyway :lol:

Definitely look into the 351 though.
