i ride a 01 blackbird.i am looking at a 97 tl 1000s.
what is a good price for this bike?
looks like a lot of fun.
are there any problems common to this bike?
im new to suzuki so any help would be great.
Check for stress cracks where the damper is connected & neck of bike.

Also make sure the latest ECU recall was done (but if you want more power then go with the original ECU) The final did lower power but not much, but also did imporve MPG too.
Yeah Tank seal,
I would say right around the $4000 mark depending on the condition and miles.

The 97 has lots of little things about it

My little bro picked his up for $3600. All stock. Only thing it had was a Battery Tender cables hooked to the battery. The owner was a Suzuki Tech that only ever put the recalled steering stablizer on it. Never had the ECM changed.
