Suzuki TU250 - What do you Think?
« on: November 29, 2008, 04:38:10 PM »
I was looking through the new Cycle World and this little bike caught my eye. I wish they had more info about it because it interests me more than the new GSXR's or cruisers. I think it's a pretty darn good looking little bike, certainly better than a Rebel or a GZ250. And it's even fuel injected. Although they don't classify it as retro, I think they should market it as such. If I had one I'd put on a better looking muffler and try to make the seat one flat unit, like on our old CB's. If only it had kickstart....

Cool. At last a new, smaller capacity roadster. Interesting that they did not use the twin exhaust port motor from the Marauder. Maybe this one will be tuned for a bit more 'pep'. The price is certainly right. Good for Suzuki.

PS. I bet they've been selling it in other markets already.
