my new gas saver

[dahondaboy]

its a 78 suzy gs550 its a one owner that belonged to a doctor. he used it to commute to college then garaged it. it shined up real nice. 400 bucks. it should pay for itself with 50+ mpg.

I learned to ride a street bike on one of those babies, only mine was red!!!

Those old GS's are bigtime reliable, nice find

Cool, looks good. That's the very same bike my buddy crashed and died on. He hit a parked car and split his chest open on the rear fender. Don't drink and ride is the moral of that story.

Nice find! Watch the regulator/rectifier, I've had 4 GS over the years and they all had the same problem. Here's a good source for any questions:

thanks for the tip, i was also told the stator is prone to problems too.
seems to be a tank of a bike from what i have been told. i will ride it the rest of this season then ill sell it in spring to get my new kawasaki versys.

Perfect for I-15 stop-n-go traffic

Cool little bike. I picked up a '74 Honda CB550 a couple months ago for the same purpose. Mine's been dubbed the ambiguously gay motorcycle though, since it's got sparking orange metalflake paint...

yeah, its a fun little round town bike. way to revved out for the highway though. but 50+ mpg is nice, for sure.
