    Suzuki GS550E 1981

    Tidy but not pristine, rideable, good condition GS550. Current WOF, rego on hold. A good condition unmolested survivor. It gets cheap reg in 3 years. You could undertake a straightforward restoration if you wanted or just ride it. Its like a decent secondhand one would have looked like in 1986 or 7.

    has original toolkit, manual, handbook and so forth. New battery too. It could do with the carbs ultrasonic cleaned but is completely rideable as is.

    Call me to discuss or PM or whatever.

    Why did I buy this last year and am now selling it? I am a Honda guy and I have bought another CB750 to play about with.

    Great bike for someone - just not for me.

    Come have a look at it if local.

    I really need to tidy up my garage this Easter. I haven't even been in this house for 3 years and it's out of control ......

    That is an amazing bike. I am realy interested in getting a new bike for the road. I have a Suzuki Dr250 for sale I think roughly ~2000(Have a look at my post), A Sl125 that I had running a while ago and I daily a 49cc Honda gionro that i would be more than willing to give up for this. I know this is a Big ask, But would it be possible to come to some sort of trade?

    Pretty fair price for a nice survivor mate. Put a wooden plank on for a seat, wrap the headers and sell it to a vaping dickhead for 8k.

    Ordinarily I would be keen but my CB750 (which is the bike I originally wanted) has arrived so I need cash to chuck at that.....

    CBF to be honest. Plus it is just tidy enough that to do that would be a waste. It would increase the value of all the others though!

    Someone came and took it for a spin the other day but he didnt want it.

    So, still for sale - I'll chuck it up on tardme when I get round to it.

    Whoops sorry just sent a PM not reliseing that you had replied.

    You could take them off me and try to sell them?

    Am I pushing this a bit much? haha


    But nah, No problem. Best of luck. Have fun with the CB750

    Edit: You would probably get more $$$ if you did sell them lol. This is the first bike that ive seen that looks great for me. And that I really want
