Here's the bike I'm in the final purchase stage of:





I've wanted one since 2001 and this happens to be the perfect color and condition with a decent price. It is a 2001 Suzuki TL1000S (v-twin sport bike and predecessor to the SV1000/VSTROM of today) and has 11,000 miles on the ticker. The only non-original pieces are the clutch (replaced at 8,000 miles) and tires with ~1000 miles on them.

Anyway, to the question as it's the clutch that bothered me since it was replaced so soon. The owner burned it up trying to do a burn-out video. He wanted to smoke the rear tire and then emerge from the smoke. The result was a clutch replacement. What else should I worry about with this burnout? I can't imagine anything else that could've gone wrong, but thought I'd ask. The brakes could use replacing in the somewhat near future (so he says), but everything else is good (so he says).

If there's anyone in the So-Cal area that is going to be in the vacinity of Buena Park and wouldn't mind stopping in to take a look at it for me before I have an old Navy friend take delivery of it and hold it in San Diego until February, please let me know and I'll put you in touch with the owner.

Thanks in advance for any thoughts and assistance!
