1997 SUZUKI RGV250 SP VJ23 Lucky Strike Export "V" Full Horsepower ModelThe Japanese domestic model had lower horsepower, this version was considered an "export" model and therefore did not have any horsepower restrictions.This is an original "export" full power model, not one that has been "derestricted" by swapping ignitions. The "V" model is a limited production of 357 units. 70 degree engine layout, dry clutch, close ratio gearbox, 32mm carbs, electric start. "V" model has a large black i.d. plate riveted to the headstock on the right hand side which designates it's an "export" model. 240 kmh speedometer instead of the 180 kmh Rear brake master cylinder has light gray lid instead of black Jim Lomas Stainless Exhaust with Carbon Fiber Mufflers Magical Racing Double Bubble Tinted Windscreen Stainless Steel Brakelines The Wheels Were Powercoated Black From The Original White (because I don't like white, too hard to clean) The Upper Fairing Bracket Was Painted Black From The Original Silver (because it looks cleaner black) The radiator was repaired on the left side by the previous owner, see picture. Seemingly damaged in transport. But it does not have any coolant leak issues. The paint is all original Suzuki factory Lucky Strike colors in near perfect condition, It has a few very very minor flaws that are not that noticable which can be seen in the last 3 pictures pictures. This is an original Lucky Strike bike, not a standard model with swapped or repainted bodywork. Small scratches on the left side panel near the rear of the gas tank, Small scratch on the front fender, and a 1/16" mark on the top right of the gas tank. The paint is very glossy and like new!
