 OK THIS IS IT...I HOPE I WILL NOT REGRET SELLING MY SAMURAI.


THIS SAMURAI WAS UPGRADED BY TRAIL TOUGH IN OREGON. IF YOU DON'T KNOW THEM, YOU ARE NOT A HARDCORE SAMURAI FAN. I LIVE IN NORTHERN CA AND I TOWED MY SAMURAI ALL THE WAY TO OREGON. AFTER THE UPGRADE, I DROVE IT ALL THE WAY BACK TO CALI WITH NO PROBLEM. I SPENT AT LEAST $12K (RECEIPT ON HAND) JUST FOR THE UPGRADES NOT INCLUDING THE PURCHASE  OF THE CAR. I DON'T WANT TO SELL THIS CAR, BUT I'M JUST IN DESPERATE NEED OF MONEY RIGHT NOW. I DIDN'T EVEN GET A CHANCE TO GO OFF-ROADING.  SINCE THE UPGRADE, I MAY HAVE PUT ON 3K MILES ON IT.  BUILT DATE WAS 08-28-2013

NOTE: THIS IS NOT A BRAND NEW CAR SO DON'T EXPECT TOO MUCH, EVEN WITH UPGRADES IT'S STILL A 27 YEAR OLD CAR. THIS IS JUST AN UPGRADED VERSION OF THE ORIGINAL CAR. IT HAS MORE POWER AND DRIVES WAY BETTER.

Land-speed racer Bill Warner dies from motorcycle crash at 285 MPH

Mon, 15 Jul 2013

Motorcycle land-speed record holder Bill Warner died yesterday after crashing during an attempt at setting another record. The 44-year-old was clocked at 285 miles per hour on the runway of a former air base in northern Maine, before he lost control of his modified Suzuki Hayabusa motorcycle and veered off the runway.
It is not known what speed he was traveling when things started to go wrong and unclear what caused the crash, which happened shortly before 10:00 AM. Warner's crew suspect there were mechanical difficulties on his last run, in addition to a slight breeze, according to the video news report. Warner was conscious and able to speak after the crash but died an hour and 15 minutes later at a hospital in Caribou. The event and runway were closed for the rest of the day as police investigated the incident.
Warner was participating in "The Maine Event" at Loring Air Force Base in an attempt to reach 300 mph in one mile. Warner's best land-speed record, set in 2011, was 311.945 mph in 1.5 miles on the same runway, according to the Loring Timing Association, a record that still stands today for open-cockpit motorcycles. After that run, Warner said the scariest part was stopping the bike before the end of the runway. Be sure to check out the video news report after the jump.

Court approves Suzuki bankruptcy plan

Fri, 05 Apr 2013

Suzuki has won approval for its Chapter 11 plan to stop selling cars in the US and concentrate instead on the company's powersports products. Judge Scott C. Clarkson of the US Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California approved the plan after the company's creditors agreed to the conditions.
Suzuki will now sell its motorcycle, ATV and marine divisions to the newly minted Suzuki Motor of America subsidiary under the Suzuki name. The new company will be wholly owned by Suzuki Motor Company. This is the final piece of the company's restructuring puzzle.
The company says it will now be able to grow its powersports businesses here in the US and also provide auto parts and service to current Suzuki owners through what's left of the company's dealer network. You can check out the brief press release on the bankruptcy plan below.

Suzuki recalling 200K crossovers over airbag woes

Mon, 16 Sep 2013

Suzuki may not be selling any new cars in the US anymore, but there are still plenty of them on American roads. Nearly 200,000 of those will need to be taken off said roads - for a little while, at least.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall for 2006-2011 Suzuki Grand Vitara SUVs and 2007-2011 SX4 crossovers due to a faulty airbag sensor. The issue apparently results from the front passenger-side floor mat causing the Occupant Classification System (OCS) sensor to malfunction over time, so whether there's a kid or an adult in the front seat, the airbag could deploy in the event of a crash.
As a result, Suzuki Motor of America is calling in 193,936 vehicles to replace the front passenger-seat cushion assembly. That's a whole lot of cars to recall, but it comes as no big surprise. Owners can expect to be notified in October. Full details in the recall announcement below.
