The engine and exhausts are beautiful. I wonder how much it sold for.Originally posted by Nessism View Post
When will some people realize that if you make a bike just for yourself, there may be only one or two other people on the planet who value it like you do.
If you do something like this to a bike, you should keep it (unless you run into a wealthy Marvel comics geek who's also a biker).1982 GS1100E V&H "SS" exhaust, APE pods, 1150 oil cooler, 140 speedo, 99.3 rear wheel HP, black engine, '83 red

That's real funny...
"valued around 2000 and I've put over 3000 into it" so it's really worth over $5,000.

"... It takes about 12 dollars to fill it up, and you can get an easy 100 miles per tank....."Originally posted by witttom View Post$4000 for a 87 Suzuki GS250. Wow!

Let's see...
....$12 divided by $3 per gal = 4 gal and at approx. 100 miles travelled that would be around 25mpg....well, my full size Chevy Impala averages 27mpg, so I guess fuel economy is not the selling point of this little GS250 is it? There must be some other "math" to rationalize paying $4k for this "legit" $900 bike?

Maybe that's what was meant by "I've put over 3000 into it".Originally posted by lurch12_2000 View PostLet's see.......$12 divided by $3 per gal = 4 gal and at approx. 100 miles travelled that would be around 25mpg....well, my full size Chevy Impala averages 27mpg, so I guess fuel economy is not the selling point of this little GS250 is it?
