Up for auction is my 1990 Suzuki Samurai. I have no reserve on this listing. It is a really nice Samurai and has lots of new parts. In the last 8 months it has been repainted, seats recovered, carpet replaced and 4 new tires. Since then I have installed a new top, glovebox door, cubby door on dash, full set of abs panels, brake master cylinder, driver window regulator, window crank, outside drivers door handle and upgraded the window felt to the rubber type. The rims are factory and I was told they were an option from Suzuki. The paint is nice but it does have a very few small dings that are expected for a 23 year old vehicle. The engine is fuel injected and in my opinion runs much better than a carbureted Samurai. Engine runs great and does not smoke. The transmission and transfer case work great also. The heat works fine and this Samurai doesn't have air conditioning. There are only two negatives on this Samurai and they are very minor........there is a small crack in the exhaust down pipe in front of the catalytic converter. It would be an easy fix for a muffler shop. Also there is a small leak on the front output of the transfer case. This is the seal behind the flange where the front driveshaft bolts up. It's an easy fix also. I encourage anyone that's interested to come out and look at the Samurai. You will not be disappointed. Send me a message through eBay if you're interested in making an appointment. Buyer is responsible for picking up or shipment of vehicle. A paypal deposit is also required at the auction end. This vehicle is also for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. Thanks for looking.

Suzuki demand in US rises after bankruptcy
Wed, 26 Dec 2012Following word that Suzuki is ceasing car sales in America, it appears that demand for the Japanese automaker's wares have increased. According to The Detroit News, American Suzuki Motor Corp. will import an additional 2,500 vehicles to quench demand that has jumped since the company announced that it was filing for bankruptcy and ending sales in America.
Dealers recently informed their sales personnel that no more vehicles would be produced and that this was the final push. With heavy incentives and a seven-year warranty as value-adds, November sales for Suzuki rose in November some 22 percent, up to 2,224 vehicles. December sales also rose, but neither month's gains outweigh the long-term losses for the automaker. While Suzuki will sell roughly 22,000 cars this year in the US, it was selling about 120,000 annually before 2008.
As it stands, Suzuki will sell off the rest of its vehicle inventory, including the 2,500 additional units, and dealers will continue to provide parts an warranty work. With all of this negative news for the automaker, it's impressive to see an interest in Suzuki vehicles even with the imminent shuttering of its North American car sales.
2014 Suzuki V-Strom 1000 ABS
Tue, 11 Nov 2014Motorcycle trends come and go like fashion, and the latest two-wheeled style du jour is the adventure bike. Chunky and rugged, these (sometimes) dirt-ready rides often take cues from the massive, Armageddon-ready rigs you'd find on the Dakar Rally. In their most neutered form, they can start as street bikes and adapt for adventure duty by adding taller suspension setups, removable saddlebags, bigger fuel tanks, and better wind protection.
Lying smack in the middle of that dirt/road matrix (and leaning toward the tarmac side) is the 2014 Suzuki V-Strom 1000 ABS. A venerable fixture in the adventure scene, it developed a primarily urban following after the model bowed in 2004, though it's also proved itself worthy of tackling trails and light offroad scenarios. For automotive folks not steeped in the vagaries of the motorcycle world, the V-Strom is the two-wheeled equivalent of the late, great Mitsubishi Montero: capable, no-nonsense, and a bit of an unsung hero in the face of more glamorous offroaders like the Land Rover LR4 and the Mercedes-Benz Geländewagen.
Ugly Moto makes beautiful motorcycle art [w/video]
Thu, 08 May 2014Ugly Moto is a horrible name for a company that makes such wonderful motorcycle art. The creation of artist Francis Ooi, the company's illustrations focus on some of the iconic racing bikes of the 1960s and 1970s.
The artwork has an elegant simplicity that really makes it pop. It would fit just about anywhere from a home office to the bedroom of a young gearhead. Ooi has completed six illustrations so far covering classic cycles from Honda, Ducati, Yamaha and even Harley-Davidson. According to his site, the Suzuki RGB500 ridden by Barry Sheene will be the next one released. All of the prints are priced at $65 and are limited to 100 copies. They are all about 16.53 inches by 23.58 inches in size.
According to his website, these prints are just a hobby for Ooi and his real career is as the creative director at an ad agency. He creates the illustrations on his Mac, and he estimates that each design with about 800 components and layers takes about a month to complete. You can get idea of the process involved in the time-lapse video below.
