1999 Suzuki TL1000R review from United States of America
"Awesome bike!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
My gas tank needed to be resealed from the bottom by the fuel pump. This is a simple gasket fix or equivalent.
Rear seat or cowl loose. This just needs to be adjusted by the latch.
General comments?
The TL1000R is a great motorcycle. It has the speed, the torque, and the adrenaline rush motorcycle fanatics crave.
Even though the motorcycle is heavier in comparison to its competitors, it has the capability to keep up or outrun. As experienced motorcyclists know, its not the bike, but the rider. However, to be able to throw this bike around you must have the size. I am 6'4'' and 270lbs. Many of my friends can't handle it!
