Description

1980 Suzuki GS850G
I am thinning my collection due to moving to Florida later in the year.
I have owned this bike since 2004, and have carefully improved it over the intervening years.
This bike rides, drives and works as factory intended it to.
I do ride it daily, so mileage will increase.
Short History.
1981, 1900 miles on the bike, it fell over, owner rather than repairing it consigned it to his cellar until 2003. My close neighbor brought it in 2003 with the intent of repairing the tank dent, and other minor damage that has occurred. Added to that the front brakes has seized and it would start, but only run on choke. My neighbor did not do anything except sell it to me. I bought it from my neighbor in 2004 still with 1900 miles on the odometer
