Any TL1000 owners?

[VladTepes]

Thanks Tony - your wealth of Suzuki knowledge is not restricted to inline 4's then !

[Tony Nitrous]

I do like TL's and wouldn't rule one out in the future.


Just spotted a pic of a TLS that's pretty interesting....

[daveh]

That's a sweet bike.

[Kiwifruit]

I like also......good looking motorcycle.

[KiwiCol]

Yep, looks good, but my back, wrists & butt are complaining just looking at it!

[Tony Nitrous]

For a comparison...

Revisiting this thread... and drooling over your bike @Macon . I'd love to see it 'in the flesh' someday
That colour scheme is just perfect. Blue/White is the only decent looking colour scheme for those I reckon.


Pricewise though I'm not sure why 1998/00 TL100R costs around $8500+  (bikepoint link)
whereas the same money (or less) can buy a lower kilometres 2008 (K7) GSX1400. bikepoint link

The TL's are great but are they worth that kind of money?

Just saw this photo on the net too - I really like this paint scheme

Revisiting this thread... , yet again.
Still can't afford one, but want one more than ever....

I had a TL1000 s a 2001 what a great bike it was i then sold it and bought the TL1000 r version and i didn't like it much ! ... better handling but not as comfy as the S version or as nice looking and the S had more sole .

I had TLS for 5 years. Great bike! Lot of torque, wheelie machine.

[VladTepes]

I like the look of the fairing off the TLR. Just "of it's time".  Plus it's a 'superbike' right ! :D Sasy so right there on the side...

Bought ny first tl1000s in 1997. OMG what  a blast.
Probebly the bike i have loved the most ever. Look, Sound, Funfactor!!

Drove mine 70.000km before i sold it, used it trackdays also, great fun

Tlr  is a bit heavier and feels, bigger, not the same Funfactor. Even if it has  more bak.

Just me
