Suzuki GS description

I picked this 850G up last year as a weekend ride.   It had about 12,300 miles on it and I changed all the fluids and installed new rubber.   I also just recently installed a sealed lead acid battery.

Everything on the bike works as it should including the self cancelling turn signals, the fuel gauge, the lights and horn etc. etc.    The seat lock works - there's no tool tray.

Mechanically she's very sound and revs properly up to redline.   She also tracks very well on the highway at speed.    Just a very solid example of this great inline 4 motor.

Seat is in great shape with no rips.

Cosmetically she's above average as well with some areas as shown in the photos:
1) little scratches on the tank - probably from a tank bag
2) typical pitting of the clear coat on the engine case
3) she fell down at some point in her history - as shown by the crack on the left side of the gauge cluster.  No other damage that I can see - all turn signal stalks etc are straight 

All in all a very nice example of the GS850G - it gets lots of compliments.       I've started commuting 60 miles round trip each day so I've bought a new commute bike, that's why I'm letting her go.

Title is clear CA and in my name.   I can work with your shipper as needed.

Anti clockwise Knockhill and riding in the North East with GP winners.

Wed, 06 Jun 2012

I was both nervous and excited for my first ever reverse direction track day last week at Knockhill. From rushing downhill into the left hand off camber hairpin to sweeping up onto the start/finish, nothing bears any resemblance to riding round clockwise. I actually raced my 350LC in the opposite direction in 1982 but it still took a few laps to get my head round what essentially is a brand new track for Scotland.
