Not a full bike but a fresh RS660 crate motor

Wonder what it'll go for

If you don't already have an rs660, it will cost a fortune to make that a runner. How have the engines been holding up? Are many people blowing them?

Excuse my ignorance .

Why does GC have an Aprilia motor for sale?
Who on the GC payroll was riding an RS660 that needed a motor??

Sometimes emission testing, sometimes improper paperwork on import, sometimes some random government research dumpster fire.

My money is on bungled import

Looks more like proceeds of crime. Iirc, failed imports show up differently (and often with a requirement to export).

"Item(s) has been forfeited to the Crown."

Makes sense now. Didn't think of that one.

...sounds more like something gleeped by CRA. Taxes get first grab in bankruptcies
Some one remind me of this in 3 days, 12 hours

If there's paperwork, this might be a nice project for $1000:

Says 1986 suzuki GS $1000 with ownership but looks more like 1975-79 750cc

It's a '79 GS850G... I think. GS's lost the kick start in '80
The carbs are a giveaway, most "G"s have CV carbs
some nice parts but a oddball bike


NOPE... it's a '78 GS750... ya still don't want it

Great price and farkles. At 120,000km I’m sure lots of buyers would shy away from it.

Looks identical to the 1000 lb Princess Auto lift I picked up a couple years ago on heavy discount. Same chintzy wheel chock. If you're patient, they usually go on sale once or twice a year.

FWIW, I'm very happy with mine. The only dodgy bit is the above mentioned chock, which isn't suitable for much more than a trials bike. I use my heavier duty PA chock or a triple-tree / headlift stand instead. Otherwise, it's very happy hoisting 500+ lbs of bike, stands and tools I haven't tested it with anything porkier, though I'm sure it's good to the rated weight. The wheels are hard plastic, so it may be a pain to shift if you have a rough garage floor...
