Not only do "turbo" and "bobber" not go together, that turbo is the wrong size for the bike.

It is rather critical to match the turbo to the engine size, and I don't know of too many Saabs that have a 650cc engine. :-k

Yeah, definitely an essay but it's way overboard. 'Not quite sure who they are after But- its purdy hard ta spel wyl dooin a dialect. and so it's a fail with multi syllable words like "accidental" spelled correctly.

I think this is an ad for Outcall service since Craigslist shut down the Personals area.
 
I think it is the perfect example of a fried brain. I mean seriously, does this person have even 1 brain cell left?
 
"Ravine"??? :-k

That would be "back there up in the holler". :encouragement:
very good Steve.
This forum really needs updated functions. So people could "Like" comments and posts without posting answers.

If it was free, it still wouldn't be a good deal. Parts are unobtainable and you will find no one that knows anything about working on one or setting it up. Also the rotor seals were notoriously short lived and they are no longer made or available. Performance was poor and gas mileage was dismal.

+1 on that. Even the spark plugs are unique.


I passed on a sweet RE5 because it was a safe bet that I couldn?t keep it on the road.
A GT750 is a good pick if you are feeling adventurous and want something different.
 
If you can't kick that thing over, you can BET that everything internal is rusted tight... Only thing that is good for is extra weight on your next trip to the scrap center...

The Motorcycle museum out by me (Kerstings) has one in perfect condition. Cool bike, but just a failed concept. The rotary engine was never very efficient. Even the newer injected ones...
 
Other than the price which is a pipe dream. It looks like a nice bike. As for the $4500 rebuilt engine by " professionals ". Modern is a well known shop in Vancouver that has a terrible rating by the BBB as well as numerous terrible online reviews. If you live here and ride a Suzuki, you know " Murray ". I like Murray and get along well with him, but he is a bit of a rounder and he definitely saw this guy coming from a mile away........

1981 Suzuki GS1100e - $12000 (North Vancouver)

Suzuki gs1100e

fuel: gas
transmission: manual


The GS1100E can truly be called the first "modern superbike" because of its use of a four-valve cylinder head with a narrow included valve angle and wedge-shaped squish band combustion chambers -- technology first used by Cosworth in its race car engines. Suzuki called its version TSCC, or "Twin Swirl Combustion Chamber." It made the GS1100E the fastest bike on the strip when introduced in 1980, and good enough to be named Cycle World's Superbike of the Year for three consecutive years from 1981-1983.
The GS1100ES' combination of consistent sub-11-second quarters, nimble yet stable handling, long-distance touring comfort, simple maintenance and bulletproof reliability contributed to the GS1100E's position as fifth "most significant motorcycle" from the previous 35 years by Rider magazine in 1999.

The conclusion reached by motorcycle journalists in 1983 was that the GS1100ES was simply the best all-round big bike on the market. Perhaps Cycle World said it best: "The engine and frame and suspension are right. The motor is brilliant, making tons of power at every engine speed without ever seeming to work at it. The GS ... doesn't overpower its chassis ... the suspension is excellent under most conditions. Taken as a whole, as a complete motorcycle, the GS works, and works well."

65,000 km. At 57,000 km engine rebuilt properly and professionally at Modern motorcycles at a cost of $4500.
Tires are new, brakes are new, very well maintained, looks beautiful, runs beautiful! On collector plates.
$12,000 firm.
