own the same model . same colour as yours. got a four into two marving exhaust which sounds nice. got the most comfortable seat you will sit on. great bikes very underated.

[@jameshajjar9040]

I had a 1980 GS 850G fully kitted out with all the Vetter products, full fairing, tall windscreen, lowers, saddlebags and tail trunk. Rode it for 17 years, best bike I ever had. Fast, very stable, great seat, comfortable, perfect. I have a Road King and a Honda Ace now, still miss my Suzuki.

[@ShaunMurray63]

Yes they are epic.

[@G8TsomeScran]

I spent my childhood hanging onto the back of Dad's Gs 850g in the same colourway. Epic bike and love the sound.

[@ShaunMurray63]

Yes they have a epic sound.

Best paint scheme Suzuki ever produced!! I have a GS1000GL. Wish it had this paint!

Really is.

That MOT stuff is nuts 🤪

[@Lutz101]

A fantastic touring machine for sealed roads if you can deal with the weight, though for an all-road tourer something a lot lighter would be better IMO, like the Kawasaki W650 or KLR650.

[@ShaunMurray63]

Yes they are heavy.

[@woodnugget1301]

Wonderful bike had the exact same colours did many many trouble free happy miles on it. 1 decal missing that I can see that’s the chrome trim around the rear light cowl other than that looks a lovely bike 👍

[@ShaunMurray63]

Yes absolutely fantastic bikes and yes you are correct about the trim.

[@zacharybasque8024]

Are those two stroke or 4 stroke like do you mix gaz and oil or not because im thinking about buying one for projects but i really don't know anything about them..

[@ShaunMurray63]

Hello Zachary , they are four stroke.
