    The long awaited GS850 build is finally complete! I found this 1979 Suzuki GS850 for sale on Facebook Marketplace. It had seen its fair share of miles but it had a ton of life left in the tank! It was a 2 owner bike and both owners kept great service records on all the maintenance that was done. I removed everything from the bike and restored each part piece by piece. The frame and other components were powder coated and the tank and fenders were painted in BMW Isle of Man Green (C4G). This bike rides like a brand new machine now!

    Yet another example of how a little or a lot of love can bring these bikes back to life. In this case - probably better than when it was new. Sounds amazing!!

      @BayCityRestorations  Год назад +5

      I kept a lot of original parts on this bike because I really love the vintage style the GS850 already has but I have to say that delkevic exhaust was well worth the money. It made this bike sound 1000 times better!

    Seeing this was awesome. I was the original owner of a 1979 GS1000E and this is a lot like that bike other than the shaft drive vs. 630 O-ring chain. The sound of that engine with the new 4 into 1 exhaust brings back memories. My 79 is long gone but I have a 1984 Honda VT500FT that's been in storage for some years, and I'd love to get her back on the road. Looks like your buddy @ditstang can work miracles with carbs, and I'm sure mine need that kind of TLC.
