Fs 2001 Tl1000r
Well im thinking about moving to a Honda Fury, So im going to put my baby up forsale.
Bought this last year as a 3 shade yellow TL, Leaking forks and warped rotors limited my ride time. I stripped it down and Put 2003 Busa gold forks re-valved and the TL springs, Speedking rotors, and then went on to repaint the bike. What went as a lets see how it looks paint job turned into a well this turned out well. Its a 2 tone, Gunmetal with metalflake belly pan and under tail and Gloss black with metalflake. The factory stickers were re-installed and I got them in Matte black. It looks awsome in the daylight and I tried to capture how nice the paint is for a rattle can job. I spent months rounding up factory plastics as the others were cracked and such. Days of prepping to make sure it could be as nice as a can job can be.
Now the bike has 41k on the clock, The previous owner stated that he put a 17k mile motor out of his brothers 03 TL when the bike had 36k on it. I dont know how true this is other then the bike runs like a top and has a great powerband and a perfect transmission. I have a spare motor that I bought about 6 mons back as a backup with 13k on it, and was starting to break it down for a big bore upgrade but lost interest. I have all the parts in the bucket in the photo.
As far as mods go its only got Yoshi slip ons, with race baffels... And a BMC filter. A handmade undertail that took me weeks to get looking just right, and black upper support, levers and dampner. And I also have a set of black Busa rims from the same 03 that I was going to put on but havent gotten to it.
Im looking for 4200$ with the motor and rims.... NO TRADES and I dont want to seperate the parts without the bike.

Thats why im hoping having a spare motor ready to go wont scare away others... If it doesnt sell im going to strip it and powder coat it all black and ride the piss out of it.
