Your thoughts on a GS 750 F

[HungusMaximist]

Giday guys.

I've just had a quick wee look at a second hand 1991 Suzuki GS 750 F tourer with side and back panniers. It's done a fair 87,000 on the clock. Looks rather clean as the owner was pretty fussy.

My question for you all is just on the GS 750 F it-self, as I haven't had a lot of experience with this kind of bike. Your comments/views/inputs/rants, be it positive or negative.

I assume you mean a GSX750F? Great bike. I owned a 1993 model which had done 34000km when I sold it after 5 years. I never had any problems with it, it was fun to ride, and was comfortable over long distances. I was still happy with it when I sold it. I only moved it on to get the DR650 as I couldn't afford 2 bikes at the time. As for the 87000km of the one you're looking at, I have no idea of any problems they may develop at high mileages.

If it has done those kms and still runs well it should do many more.the bags will come in handy.If you like the bike and the price buy it.

Great, any thoughts on a GS1200SS. I see a few around these days for sale on the 5-7 K mark. Any good?
