I had one of those new in 82 mine was black and silver with gold pin stripes a very sharp bike back then it sold new for $3,200 you got a great deal on a great old bike
That's cool man I'm finally getting into these older bikes after realizing alot of them are more reliable then alot of these newer fuel injected sportbikes plus the feeling of riding these old cheap bikes are awesome 😎
The older bikes are built so well better & last the test of time great pick up nice find have a blessed weekend enjoy your Saturday ive had many of these bikes over the years and they are great that bike sounds really healthy 👊💨
thanks I'm very excited about this bike and I agree with you these older bikes are built way better then alot of newer machines. I trust the reliability of the old machines just need normal maintenance and they will run forever
I have an 81 GS650GL. Its been sitting in my shop for over 20 years. I'm going to do a resto-video on it too. Just found your video and subscribed. My initial video will be up in a day or so. Looking forward to following your restoration!
thanks for watching the video can't wait to upload the first ride video I'm going through the bike as we speak oil change, spark plugs, air filter and I just got the new mufflers and battery in the mail. I can tell this little bike is going to be a lot of fun 😁
Nice buy - sounds strong! I know you like to keep but I think you should Sell them for a nice profit. Baby Callie helping out already - growing up fast she is
i just bought an 83 gs 850 for the same price lol not a bad deal mine also needed a battery and a clutch lever lol but i borrowed some parts pff my gsxr and rode it home so its a win
most of the center stands on these older bikes are floppy and won't stay up so I remove them and use a car jack to lift the bike up if I need to remove the tire
Hello! nice find on that GS! I have an 82 550. I noticed that the seat on yours has a tear. I have a like new seat I'm trying to sell if you're interested?

Yes sr alot of these old bikes are more reliable then the newer bikes just can't let them sit for years.
@@2wheelfamily493 I almost found a silver one for $500 lost title tho. It's clean ASF. Uhh I want it
Nice that would make a sweet cafe racer
thanks can't wait to invest money and time into the old girl
Old skool is best for sure
Not a fan of the handlebars but if you love it that's, the main thing 👍
Fantastic family.

You dropped one of your battery bolts when you handed the keys back !!! Lol
Thanks I didn't realize that lol 😂
Early suzukis are bullet proof 👌❤🇦🇺
I agree thanks for watching the video
She is growing so fast.Glad to see y'all are a big happy family

bought a '82 550. That bike was awesome. Paid $1,700 for it brand new.
That's awesome this bike has been very reliable and fun to ride!
I love the stuff you find. Great vid. Cheers! ( P.S. - this remind me of the bike Motorcycle Boy had in the 1983 movie RUMBLE FISH. My favorite! )

Have and regularly ride an '81 Gs650. Love her to death.
70 mile daily commute is nice with a good windscreen and cargo box on the back luggage rack.

@@2wheelfamily493 The 650's are awesome. There's a reason you can find so many of Suzuki's 40-50 year old bikes, they were pretty much bulletproof.
Sweet bike!
Great deal!!
Awesome jobs guys!! As always!!!
Love you guys!!
thanks we love you to 😁
Y'all are so freaking awesome!! I love yalls videos so pls keep'em coming..
thanks appreciate you following the channel!
Nice buy - sounds strong!
I know you like to keep but I think you should Sell them for a nice profit.
Baby Callie helping out already - growing up fast she is
thanks I am actually going to hold on to this old bike and yes baby Kali is growing up very fast
Heck yeah bro, some straight bars, maybe a lower profile seat, some TLC and she’ll be a nice little ripper. 👍✌️
thanks very excited about this bike 🏁
Non ethynol gas is definitely the fuel to run your bikes love your decision here 💨💨
very happy to have a non ethanol gas station so close can't wait to bring this bike back to life.
looks like you got a nice little deal, there...
thanks I love this old bike
Nice job ❤❤❤
thank you!!!
i just bought an 83 gs 850 for the same price lol not a bad deal mine also needed a battery and a clutch lever lol but i borrowed some parts pff my gsxr and rode it home so its a win
that's awesome congrats with your purchase ride safe
Just to let you know it has front air assist forks to run about 8psi. Also if Mac makes a slip ones for it I would get them.
the bike does not have air assist forks and I bought slash cut slip on mufflers from eBay for $180 I'll have the update video uploaded soon
@@2wheelfamily493 they are under the caps, one valve on each side. Kinda a pain to get the psi equal on each side. I had my 1982 GS650GL for 8 years.
Nice!
Thanks!
Love your channel I'm thinking about buying a bike soon.alwas been a builder of cars but bikes are a bit different
Thanks for following the channel that would be cool for you to get into bikes. Stay safe 🏁
You find the best bikes, for my tastes.
Why do you remove the center stands ? Those come in handy.
most of the center stands on these older bikes are floppy and won't stay up so I remove them and use a car jack to lift the bike up if I need to remove the tire
@@2wheelfamily493 I've never heard that, but then again I've never experienced it, so I have no opinion either way, just curious.
Make sure the stator is good. Kinda suspect that his battery was dead. They did eat stators.
I'll definitely look into that thanks Fam!

My apologies if I offended you bro.
How fast is it
Faster than the 550 and slower than the 750 😂
The bike makes comparable power to sv650/FZ07 just a inline 4 so it should be smoother
