1973 Suzuki TITAN

t500-63083

Up for auction is my 1973 Suzuki T-500 Titan two stroke. The bike is in excellent condition and has maintained an original patina. PLEASE CLICK ON THE LINK TO MY SHUTTERFLY ACCOUNT BELOW IT HAS THE VIdEO OF THE BIKE RUNNING AND 39 HIGH RES PHOTOS. The bike is very original and has not been tampered with much. I DO NOT HAVE A TITLE for this cycle. The state of Maine does not issue titles PERIOD,for vehicles older than 1995. Thus being said most states will accept a bill of sale and the ORIGINAL copy of the registration wich i can provide. The bike was inspected in Maine roughly 130 miles ago. All of the lights and horn switches work great. I am not really riding the bike, it will sit for a week and a half at a time, and start first kick. The front tire has less than 150 miles on it, the seat was recently recovered with a nice aftermarket cover, with the silkscreened Suzuki emblem. Not one of those cheapo 30 dollar ones. The battery is less than 1yr old, I have adj the points, drained the injection tank and replaced the oil, replaced the crankcase oil, replaced the rh exh gasket, replaced the clutch gasket (it was starting to seep) while the clutch cover was off I removed the frictions,steels and springs and measured them with my micrometer, they were all very close to factory original specs, I removed the petcock strainer and rebuilt the carbs and found absolutly no sediment. You could almost eat soup out of the tank it is very clean. The plugs are new and gapped correctly. The bike comes with a shop manual, a photocopied owners manual, and a carb tuning manual. The front fender has a ding at the rear, and a smidge at the front (see pictures), The rh rear turn signal has a hairline crack (see pictures) I also noticed the front tire now has a slight shimmy which i didnt notice before the tire was changed. I think the kid who mounted it balanced it was a novice. And after i rebuilt the carbs the bike will "surge slightly" when letting off the throttle. I have heard that i should shim my needles or that the bike is running "lean". Overall the bike is in great condition for the year and runs well. It comes with an original tool kit as well. If you follow this link it will take you to my shutterfly account where there are 39 pictures of the bike and a 1.38 min video of the bike running and a walkaround. http://suzukit500pictures.shutterfly.com/ I can deliver the bike to a shipper in the area or arrange to have it picked up at my work where there is ample room for a tractor trailer. I will assist in any way I can. The bike is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early. A 500 DEPOSIT is due within 48 hrs after the auction ends. I accept us postal money orders, cash and paypal. I urge you to come test drive the bike or have someone local come inspect it. They are only original once, dont pass this one up. Please ask any questions you might have before you bid. Thanx and good luck
