Danish Suzuki T500!
Restored, still has original throttlegrip etc. Goes like stink, but the MPG is horrid. 10km/ltr, but I was at +5000 rpm. Love it! Will need a new front tyre as it jumps around abit, then maybe an electronic ignition. LasseNC screwed with this post 11-24-2012 at 09:00 AM |

You lucky bastard ![]() Joking aside, how is it that the bike you bought is in such a good shape. How much did you pay? |

20.000,- DKK, it's just below 5000$ I reckon, but it's Danish prices... :)

Thats just about 28700 Namibian Dollar. Not bad, not bad. I am looking at two bmw bikes tomorrow for about 10452.96 dkk.
But you know what sucks, I am an engineering student and engineering students have no money especially after spending money on maintenance for my vw polo, ktm 250sx and 1983 tt600. I wish i could just find a big pot of gold .

The right side pipe was louder than the left, so I investigated and found a mashed up baffle by some P.O.
The exhaust had to be welded at the end due to this mockery. But a friend had me sorted and after two tries I also got a correct NOS baffle! |

I'm a tad envious, would love to find one around here, especially in that condition.
