T500 Suzuki, low miles & Interesting history For Sale (1974)
1974 unrestored T500 bought from the lot of a deceased motorcycle dealer as part of a group of mainly Italian bikes with only 9000 kms registered. First owner was the dealership followed by one other who was an employee(owner?) of the dealership in 75. Amazingly it had lain undisturbded for a hell of a long time as the layer of dust in it was really thick! Completely unrestored it cleaned up well and after a good fettle is running lovely. The bike has nicks and dings and light surface rust in places but the only real damage is to the right handside silencer from a scrape up the road at sometime and the footrest and brake pedal were also repaired, the interesting bit is that I was led to believe the shop on a number of occasions entered stock bikes in the Liege 24hr, their is no way I can substantiate this but Iam searching to see what comes to light, maybe the damage was from a fall in such an epic race? The engine is very nice and really strong with nothing amiss at all and keys for both the ignition and the fuel filler cap are present.L/H side panel to be included. |
