Suzuki 500 Cobra T500 description
Please bid only in truly interested in the purchase of these vintage bikes........ Most people know of this bike as the Suzuki Titan, and it was considered one of the most reliable bikes built in the 60s. This was the biggest of Suzuki’s “T” series of bikes, with a 492cc engine that put out 47 horsepower. This was good enough for the Cobra to hit 105 miles per hour. In a world where two-strokes were all about dramatic power bands and quarter mile times, Suzuki tried to build two-strokes that were suitable for everyday riding, or even touring and they succeeded. The Cobra & Titan were so underrated. This one is very close to being a Totally Original Suzuki 500 Cobra 2 stroke twin. This is the bike they said could not be built, they said it was too big. Well, it was built and worked great. This one has just over 6000 miles and is nicely complete and original. It runs and drives great. Has clear paperwork. Original paint and equipment. Not a rebuild, this one is a survivor. Handlebars, Tires and painted twilight support are about the only items not stock on the bike. I DO NOT have the tank emblems. Take a look at the pictures that were just taken, If you need some other shots just let me know. I reserve the right to cancel the auction as the bike is for sale locally….. Need more pictures, just let me know. Final Payment by Cash in person or money orders. NO Cashiers checks. NOTE: IF YOU HAVE LESS THAN 10 POSITIVE EBAY FEEDBACKS, YOU MUST CONTACT ME PRIOR TO BIDDING, OR I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO CANCEL YOUR BID. THIS IS DUE TO NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WITH LOW FEEDBACK BIDDERS.

Team Hammer Releases Martin Cardenas
Fri, 04 Jan 2013AMA Pro Racing’s Team Hammer has released Martin Cardenas from his contract to allow the reigning AMA Daytona Sportbike Champion “to better pursue his goal of returning to World Championship competition as soon as possible.” Though the eventual goal appears to be for Cardenas to move up to the World Superbike Championship, rumors have Cardenas landing with the Yoshimura Suzuki factory team to race in the AMA Superbike Championship in 2013 as an eventual stepping stone towards international racing. Cardenas won the 2010 and 2012 AMA Daytona Sportbike championships with Team Hammer riding a Suzuki GSX-R600. Team Hammer held a contract option for Cardenas for the 2013 season but decided to release the Colombian racer, allowing him to take a different route towards a WSBK career.
