RG400 Very Nice Example ! (now sold)

#1 PostAuthor: Tonto » Tue Jan 08, 2019 5:17 pm

Due to need for more garage space, my RG400 is being put up for sale: before going on eBay & Car and Classic, thought I would see if she was of interest to anyone on these hallowed pages. Some pics below

Approx 11,000 miles and she really is very tidy: paintwork is totally unmarked (but pillion seat pad has a slight tear / imperfection), genuine Suzuki Bodywork, rides, handles and brakes very well: quite a nippy and nimble little thing (60+ BHP / 145kg) and sounds crisp and absolutely lovely when on the pipe. Bought her approx 18 months ago from a VJMC guru (runs a bike shop - he imported it from Japan 3yrs previously - and had the tail piece signed by Kevin Shwantz), she has never let me down and always started first or second prod of the kick start (unless left for many weeks ). MOT till August 2019. Comes with workshop manual and 2 keys.

Couple of niggles:
i) Fuel gauge / sender appears to have a mind of its own, reads normally then drops to zero ?? - TBH never been an issue as I've relied on the trip meter.
ii) Carbs have developed a bad flat spot at 6K RPM., its a pain, but when past 6k she takes off like a banshee - but it is an annoyance that needs looking at - and reflected in my asking price.

Seeking £7k firm (When she goes on eBay it will be at £7750 - all others Ive seen are near £9k)

If of interest or want any info or detailed pics please PM me.
Cheers Tim

Tonto is an evil tempter, trying to make me buy another motorcycle.
