Up For Sale Is A Customized 98 Suzuki 1500LC!! 19000 Miles, Runs Great, Sounds Angry & Show Winning Looks. The Bike Has undergone extensive modifications that has turned it into a true road ready custom!! This bike was made to be ridden not just looked at. With the tank positioned under the seat & the lowered riding position the bike handles like a dream. I have never ridden another V-twin that runs as well or is as comfortable on the highway!! Asking price is $8000.00 but all reasonable offers will be considered. For further info, additional pics or to make an offer Contact Bill at [email protected] or Phone 352-362-4814

seruzawa, Do you honestly think this bike is worth the same as a stock model? This is not a bike that some bumpkin bought & slapped on a few chrome accessories bought at the local bike shop. A lot of time, effort & imagination went into this bike & it shows! Every where it goes there are people checking it out, asking questions & taking pics. I dont see them paying as much attention to stock bikes! Why don't you apply your theory to bikes put out buy major builders. Tell them thier bikes hold the same value as a stock Harley! I think you should take a pause before you publish statements. I remember an old saying that goes (Better to stay silent & be thought a fool that to speak & remove all doubt!).

I see you didn't take the advice. Let me ask you a question, are you a real rider or a book biker?? You know, one of those guys that comes online & makes comments & quips but the only bike they have ever ridden is thier neighbors minibike when they were 12 or 13! Your statements have that neophyte aura to them. I am not trying to be insultive, I am just making an observation!

I think "Blond Update" should be your moniker!! You never did answer the question now did you?? Ok, childrens hour is over, time for me to do some work. Seruzawa can now take command of the forum with his critques that stem from vast years of knowledge & experience.
Look, I dont mean to be insultive but I felt you needed a taste of your own medicine! If you have limited or no knowlege on a topic you should refrain from comment on others statements. Especialy when it comes to a persons bike. That is a very sensetive subjects. Its almost like insulting thier wife!! Praise in public & criticize in private! There are plenty of ways to communicate without resorting to demeaning anothers posts.

Hmmm, would you like to try mine?
Sure, I will try anyone you put in front of me. Bring it over, I'l give you my honest opinion. But remember, opinions are like assholes , everybody has one & most of them stink.
I guess I openned a can of worms & everyone is diggin in the dirt. There is no need flaunt you motorcycle prowess, the only one you impress in the end is yourself. As far as the guy who worked at the harley dealership goes, how many times have you gone into any dealership, motorcycle, Car, Boat, etc. & have them offer you what your vehicle is really worth! When they sell them they post price tags on them way above stock but when it comes to yours, Cmon.
And to whomever it was that had concerns obout over inflated prices on customs, look at the price! we are not even talking over ten grand for a show winning bike in spotless condition, Really guys, lets be real & why are we having this conversation on a 4 sale forum I don't know!!
Look, all i'm doing is trying to sell an extremely nice bike at a reasonable price. If you dont like it, dont buy it but don't Impugn it. (yes, most bikers do have a decent vocabulary). And for the guy who is not wanting to start an argument, I prefer to thing of it as trading her in for a different model that I can upgrade again later!!

Brush up on your history there partner!

PS: it's not a bad bike, if you like chopped metrics with apehangers, green paint, and Nazi symbols.
You need to brush on your history & put your glasses on. For one the bike is Pagan Gold not green, Two it does not have apehanger bars, they are the stock bars With 4 up 2 back risers & three the Iron Cross Or Maltese Cross is not a Nazi symbol!! The only thing you got right was that it is a metric, & I will take a wet cluched, hydrolic valved metric over a Harley or Harley type motor any day of the week!!

Again, Check your history!!

Fist, love the bike. It's so unique!

Damn. I always get Pagan Gold confused with Druid Green. My bad.

The bars comment was a reference to a likely rider.

All those Nazis my Dad and Uncle were shooting at were wearing those Maltese Crosses..guess that's why I get them confused.

I had a friend who dated a hydrolic-valved metric once. She did all his blow and left as soon as it ran out.
The Christian "Nights of Malta" were the first known to sport the maltese cross design during the first crusades. It stood for honor, lotalty & bravery in battle. The germans began using it under kaiser rule before WW1. Just because the Nazi's wore an emblem doesn't make it a Nazi emblem!! They wore Eagles too, are they Nazi symbols? Hell they even wore pants, maybe thats why you get them confused!! By the way, my father & three uncles, along with several other relatives of mine served in forward areas during WWII. But maybe we should leave that subject for another day.

Mr. Bro's,

May I call you Brown? I'm always spewing out nonsense on this site. It's my only vice these days. Ok, not really, but one of my vices. Welcome.

BTW: I despise choppers ever since the coffin tank and girder front ends fell out of favor. If it does't have twisted iron rods in place of the rear shocks, it's just not a chopper to me. :D
You can call me anything you want eccept "sweetheart"!!
Thank you for the hospitality. I know what you mean about hardtails!! I will always have a soft spot in my heart for them too But my ass isnt too fond of them anymore. Nowadays I have to compromize. I don't consider this or any bikes I do to be choppers. This one is more like if the Munsters and Pin Head formed a band, this bike would be on the album cover!!

Don't let grumpy people throw you off, most of them were probably abused children. Anyway they have plenty of time to get glad!!
I know what your saying about the parking. Even if you had a space outside you most likely would not have the bike for long. Pieces of it would be all over the midwest after the guy who heists it turns it over to the local chop shop!!
It is a great city & I too am a blue blooded Cubs fan!! I thought we were going to finaly put the goat behind us this year but I guess not!
You are right about the winter there. I remember being so cold I was afraid to shake after a pee. Thought the end of it would break off or something.
