Suzuki GS description

1979 GS 750 in very good condition for it's age.  I bought this bike the beginning of this year with the intent on making a cafe racer out of it.  I rode it a handful of times and then parked it on the rack and it sat there until last week.  


I've done very little to it.  It ran great last week after installing the Dyna ignition but is really fouling the plugs from running too rich.  I tried to lean out the carbs and now cannot get it started.

The guy I bought it from told me he did a lot of work on the carbs to get the bike running correctly.   I don't have any information on what jets etc are in the carb.  Bike appears to be complete

minus the stock airbox.  It has pod air cleaners.  They are off in the auction photos because I was trying to adjust the carbs yesterday.  



I have a clear VA title in my name.  I will also supply a VA bill of sale.


The good

Engine - stock as far as I can tell.  24,XXX miles.

Battery - new in June

Electrics - Horn, headlight, turn signals, brake light, fuel gauge, dash lights all work.  

Front brake - works good but squeaks

Tires - back one is new, front has good tread left

Paint - nice silver and burgundy paint

Ignition - Dyna S ignition, new wires and coils installed Sep '13

Gas tank - good interior condition from what I can see, doesn't leak




The not as good

Rear brake - sticking, needs attention

Engine - little oil seepage in places.  I have no history on if it's been rebuilt.

Carbs - adjusted way too rich.  fouling plugs.  need attention.

Brake lever - handlebar brake lever switch doesn't activate brake light.  foot pedal switch is working.


Only selling because I have too many projects and will never get to making a cafe out of it.  NO WARRANTY OR REFUND.

Paypal or Cash

Local pickup only, I cannot deliver

Please ask questions if needed

Good Luck

US Motorcycle Thefts Down 6% in 2011

Tue, 09 Oct 2012

Americans reported 46,667 motorcycle thefts in 2011, a 6% decrease from 49,791 stolen motorcycles in 2010, reports the National Insurance Crime Bureau. Despite the drop in reported thefts, the non-profit organization representing nearly 1100 property and casualty insurance companies says the theft rate still averages out to one motorcycle stolen every 11 minutes in the U.S. The numbers were published in the NICB’s 2011 ForeCAST Report which examined theft reports as well as recoveries.

Moto3. Recession racers?

Mon, 08 Nov 2010

I've sat through enough manufacturer' presentations recently to know that we're in trouble. Ignoring the still booming Asian markets, the rest of the motorcycle World is in free-fall. Even looking at the figures optimistically we're still only selling half the volumes we were in pre-crash 2006.

Stoner Blows Away Competition on Final Day of MotoGP Sepang Test

Thu, 02 Feb 2012

To be the man, you have to beat the man, and after the final day of MotoGP’s pre-season test in Malaysia, Repsol Honda‘s Casey Stoner continues to be the man. The reigning MotoGP World Champion didn’t let lingering soreness from the back problems that sidelined him for the first day of testing at Sepang slow him down. On just his second of 21 laps on the final day, Stoner set a blistering lap time of 1:59.607, besting second-fastest rider Jorge Lorenzo by 0.591 seconds.While there’s still some room for improvement to be found his Honda RC213V, Stoner will turn things over to the engineers and fly back home to Switzerland to his wife Adriana for the birth of their first child.
