Juu, tervetuloa Kangaspaja :cheers:

I have planned to sell my bike, if anybody interested in old turbo Suzuki, or I give it away to my son.
Bike itself is really OK, riden about 160 000 km and turbo was installed at about 93 000 km. Bullet proof engine..
But... I'm not ok anymore and never will be..

Thanks,  -Jussi

Best wishes Jussi, I think you should keep the 1402 in the family. Just run in at 160,000 km

Sad to hear Jussi. I think also you should keep it anyway. Lot's of hours spent on that one for sure.

I saw that you are located in Kotka. Me, and few friends of mine are going to stay in Kotka after midsummer week for one night. Three out of four of us are riding 14's. Send me PM if you would like to meet. At least I would be interest in seeing your bike. Never seen a 14 with a propeller.

Best wishes, Peetu

Don't think you have to leave this community just because you're selling your bike mate 🙏
