Time for a clean out and I don't use this old girl so its time to go. I picked it up in Darwin Australia (not my paint scheme) and have been meaning to do something with it but no time. Everything works and it rides really nicely with one of the tightest and quietest 1100 engines Ive heard. The Kids have just wrecked me camera and the attached picky is 8 months old. Only differnece from the picky is I have put a new exhaust onto it with a 4 into 1 and stainless can with chrome headers and the engine casings are now origional with the origional TSCC plates on them. Rego on hold. I also have a spare engine for one of these that has a good bottom end and has had the top end removed due to valve damage.
Make me a reasonable offer..

From memory it was the first 16 valve production bike (I may well be wrong). A popular choice amongst post-classic racers. I had one a few years back that was in reasonably shit condition, swingarm bearings were flogged out, or maybe it was just flex in the frame? I caned it everywhere I went regardless.
Good luck with the sale.

Jeez you are right it s an EZ it was a typo as my previous was an ET..(thats my excuse anyway).
Yup they are great old engines I have done may Kays of cool riding on those wonderful old things. This is my second one and it is the TSCC (twin swirl combustion chamber) which is early 80s speak for 16 valve engines. You really know you are riding a "super bike" (as they were called in those days) when you ride an old GSX. I really don't know what its worth but it owes me around $2500.

Cheers mate but Im not really after a Hyosung (nice bike though).
However If anyone has a reasonable trailie (roadworthy one or close) 400cc and above Id think about a swap.?

Having seen "Old Yella" in the flesh on many occasions, I can vouch for it's "mintness" :-)
