    At least with an entrenching tool he can give the poor Shovelhead a decent burial. What a waste of a 98" kit...

      What is with that seat??

      The seat looks like crap and appears to be attached to a piece of plywood, along with the taillight and "new signals".

      I may not be rebuilding my bike very fast, but the 2 years of work he's done certainly doesn't justify the price, yet he's FIRM on it.



      For sale is a '81 Suzuki 650GSX motorcycle. This motorcycle runs well and sounds very good. It also starts very well. Purchase of bike comes the shop manual.

      Price: $2000 firm. NO OTHER OFFERS ACCEPTED.
      TEXT ONLY: 3zero8.2nine3.one706

      Work I have done:
      I have put a lot of work into this bike over the last 2 years. Here is a short summary of the work done:
      - Restored orignal air management system complete with all orignal factory parts.
      - Carburetors haven been dipped, cleaned and rebuilt by Great Plains motorcycle
      - Custom molded airbox to hold K&N air filter
      - New rectifier
      - New stator
      - New driain plug (it was stripped when I purchased the bike)
      - New signals
      - Custom seat
      - Fuel tank cleaned on inside
      - Clubman handlebars
      -Valves adjusted
      - Tensioner tested
      - New gaskets

      Work needed to be done:
      - After riding for 15 mins or so the engine revs tend to remain around 3k (carbs probably need balanced which I have not done yet)
      - Clutch cable adjuster needs replaced. The original one is not working.
      - Choke cable can be a little stiff to pull. It most likely it just twisted.

      Why am I selling this:
      Some of my priorities in life have changed. Love this bike, but need to move forward.

      I am looking for a mature rider who is willing to fix some small remaining issues.

      Price: $2000 firm. NO OTHER OFFERS ACCEPTED.

        A plywood seat and he worked on it for two years but can't replace a clutch adjuster or synch the carbs. Hmmmm Gotta think on this. heh

            Raddest scooter ever - $300 (Lower east side)




            I can't believe I'm finally selling the beast but it has to happen. Gotta make room in the garage for a motorcycle. For sale is this badass little scooter covered in stickers from all the places I've worked and held together with duct tape because somebody Chuck Norris'ed the back end. Model is MZ Moskito. 49cc. Haven't gotten it started yet this year. Needs a carb cleaning and a little love. After that it'll be your fun little summer toy. Message me with questions or to come see the sweetest ride on the lower east side.

                1985 Suzuki GS "RearTire"

                Can't get over the Rear Tire and asking price of $10,000!





                FRAME UP RESTORATION...just about 400 miles on this bike since completed !!!

                This bike was professionally built by a motorcycle shop in Connecticut (Lew Cycle & Sled) and is currently for sale by him......

                this is a frame up restoration. This bike was a completely stock bike when it was purchased.... the bike was taken down to the frame and restored. Piece by piece. the frame was painted...and everything else was either painted, powder coated or replaced with OEM parts(if possible). everything we could replace with oem stuff was done...like grips, turn signals, horn, mirrors, levers, etc. the motor was taken out and EVERYTHING was done to make it new and slightly bigger. its now a 1230 cc with lots of stuff inside. even the tranny was sent out to be undercut

                the swing arm was a one off custom fab done by Toce Engineering in South Winsor Ct. they did an amazing job. even getting a newer gsxr 750 shock to fit inside the frame and swingarm. if you looked closely...look at the rear rim. they cut out the center section of the stock gs1150 rim and pressed/welded into a 300 wide tire hub. they even fabricated the stock rear braking system, so we could keep it as stock appearing as possible. both front and rear rims were powder coated gloss back.

                what was done to the motor?...Cam motion G2 cams ,1.5mm over intake valves,1mm over ex valves, ape springs, cylinder stud and nut set, ported head, megacycle welded rockers, prepped crank (not straight cut gear )Vance and hines billet clutch basket, Full undercut five speed. new clutch (steels/fibers as well)

                the stock fork tubes were slightly pitted...so we took them apart and got new tubes...and rebuilt the forks....new decals on the forks...after the bottoms were powder coated. even the reservoir was repainted. the lower tube was sandblasted and powder coated as well

                we upgraded the ignition to a Dyna 2000 ignition with dyna mini coils.

                it has a Vance & Hines sidewinder header with real large ports. it has been powder coated with temperature resistant coating so it will last a long time. we customized so it could be street driven and keep as much ground clearance as possible...and it sounds real good with a brand new Vanes & Hines megaphone muffler.

                we even took apart all the brake calipers and fork reservoirs and sandblasted them, rebuilt them and painted them the same gold from the factory...every bracket was powder coated or painted. that includes the handle bars and triple trees headlight bucket and trim ring, foot levers and pegs, engine mount brackets..you name it..... had hundreds of dollars in powder coating.

                we added the Kiehin 39mm FCR carbs. and it took several tries to get the right jetting to get it to run perfect. we have a in-house Land & Sea dyno..and the O2 sniffer helped us get it as perfect as possible. you should know these carbs aren't easy to get and aren't cheap either.....so not only is the bike new...it is correctly tuned to optimal performance.

                n20 kit has everything you need for a wet kit. all the nozzles spray into the rubber boot for carbs. kit needs one or two wires to be completed. we have never used the kit on this bike. nitrous bottle was repainted and a brand new decal on the bottle was added. custom brackets were made so the bottle hangs out where it can be seen

                the plastics were all removed and repainted...they look brand new. the seat was taken off, some foam removed...and all the fabric was replaced.

                Call Lew at 860 643 7966 ..Tuesday thru sat from 10am to 6pm

                  That stretched swing arm, totally destroys the aesthetics. What a shame, all that work and then make it ugly.

                    That badonkadonk isn't worth $10K, sorry.

                      Ain't quite a drag bike and ain't quite a street bike. Someone will likely buy it though.

                      Of course you can get a Hayabusa for around half what they are asking.

                            Hmm, bike was in her name and she is selling it for $100...I think she just screwed herself instead of the ex.
