Suzuki GS description

 This is a 1979 Suzuki GS1000L that is in very nice running condition. It has been converted to a cafe style bike and has a GSXR front end swap done to it which has greatly improved the handling and braking of this bike. This bike was recently purchased from a man who had this bike stored at a Suzuki dealership for the last 8 years in none running condition. When i got the bike, the fuel system needed to be gone through completely. The tank was drained and cleaned (it is not rusty at all), fuel hose replaced and the carburetors were completely disassembled, cleaned and rebuild using all new gaskets, needles & jets. The bike at that time also got new points and condensers and timing was set. It runs and drives excellent. The rear shocks are Koni adjustable shocks and are in excellent working order. The bike also has a very nice Derale oil cooler setup on it. The exhaust is in nice condition. When I got the bike, it was leaking on the right side between the header and the muffler. I have replaced that gasket and it is fine now. The right side muffler does have a small dent in it that can be seen in the pictures. The paint, while not perfect is in very nice condition as can be seen. Both front and rear lights work excellent. Please take a look at the pictures and ask any questions that you may have before purchasing or making an offer. Please feel free to make an offer on the bike if you wish. The worst I can do is counter offer on which you can accept or decline. I am asking for a $200 deposit via paypal at final sale. Thanks for looking!
