Suzuki Other description

This is a 1976 Suzuki GT550 INDY 2-stroke, triple cylinder bike. I have a clear title. I purchased this bike with intentions of restoring it, but a serious injury and medical bills have altered my plans. I bought this bike from a very trustworthy individual who purchased it used and left it sitting in his garage for about 7 years. Like me, he did not have the means to restore it. The bike needs work and/or should be inspected in all of the areas one would expect after sitting so long such as: carbs, petcock, fluids, filters, brakes, battery, tires, cables, etc. I have not attempted to start the bike as I do not have a battery, and I'm sure the carbs need cleaning. What I do know is that I ran a compression check using the kick starter and all three cylinders show 140+ PSI. Bike shifts through all gears just fine. As expected, the bike has some minor pitting here-and-there, but overall it's in pretty nice shape for a 37 year old bike. Gas tank has some paint chips, but no dents. Inside of tank looks pretty good, but I would recommend flushing. There is no serious rust inside tank that I can see. Seat needs a new cover. Nice seat cover replicas out of GRB on ebay very reasonably priced. Bike is all original best I can tell except for the horn and a few touch-up spots painted on frame. No frame damage. It even has the original Suzuki "S" mirrors. Guages are very clear, the photo shows a reflection. 

This bike is simply too complete to part-out. However, this bike wiil require some mechanical work. I have disclosed everything I know about this bike. It would make a great restoration project, or just do the required mechanical work and ride it as it looks. The is no reserve on this bike. Local pickup only. Buyer responsible for shipping fees. A $200.00 deposit through Paypal due within 24 hours of purchase. Remaining balance must be paid directly to seller within 7 days of purchase. Be safe, and good luck bidding!
