Had one just like it – bought new in Feb. ’83 for $2995!! Had it 2 yrs, then let my “experienced” cousin ride it with his wife on the back – made it about 2 miles before he put it in a ditch. Bought me a new “used” one with less miles & ran better 🙂 Rode it till ’91.
I prefer the earlier GS. You can kind of see where this one is heading toward the “Takana” styling, which I think is now dated. The earlier GS was a timeless design like the CB 750.

Always thought these GS Suzukis were good looking bikes!
I agree with you.

Oops… I meant Katana not Takana!
