1998 Suzuki TL1000R – £4, 495
40, 490 miles | 996cc V-Twin | Yellow | Extensive Recommissioning | Shropshire
is pleased to offer this striking 1998 Suzuki TL1000R, finished in yellow and showing 40, 490 miles.
Having spent 18 years with its previous keeper, including approximately eight years in storage, this increasingly sought-after Japanese sports bike has undergone an extensive, carefully documented recommissioning at our Shropshire workshop.
Rather than simply getting the motorcycle running and giving it a polish, we've worked systematically from front to back, attending to the mechanical, electrical and cosmetic details, with particular attention to retaining genuine Suzuki components wherever possible.

Condition and history
The motorcycle presents extremely well following its recommissioning. We have deliberately retained or sourced original Suzuki components rather than fitting unnecessary aftermarket modifications.
The accompanying photographs show the motorcycle as it stands today, while a detailed photographic record of the workshop work is available on our website.
As with any 28-year-old motorcycle, prospective buyers are encouraged to view and inspect the bike, and we will happily discuss its condition and history.
MOT and warranty
MOT scheduled for completion this week. The result will be confirmed once issued, and the motorcycle will undergo final checks before handover.
Written warranty terms will be provided and confirmed before sale.
Viewing and collection
Motorcycle delivery can be arranged at additional cost, subject to location.
