    Newbie for NH with a 85 GS550.

    Hello everyone newbie from NH here. Literally today this evening bought a 85 GS550.Not sure what model exactly it looks like an early Katana kinda and it's blue and white. It's gonna be a bit of a project as it hasn't run since last year and needs some love. Good part is it comes with a parts bike same year and model. So any help on identifying this beauty would be greatly appreciated I'll post up the one pic I have of it so far. Figure I'll be spending a bit of time here getting to know everyone and picking your brains for knowledge on the GS line.
    Thanks,
    Todd

    When consulting the magic 8 ball for advice, one must first ask it "will your answers be accurate?"

          Get it up and running and meet the NE GSR crew June 17th!(look at the Louden classic meet under the GS meetingplace thread). We try to get together every few months! Also great cats around that area thay might be able to give you a hand if you ever needed one.

          Welcome aboard! Good luck on the restore! Hope to meet you soon!

              Man I may have passed your house. I'm in the Whites for a weekend getaway... Just tore up the Kanc! With my cage...


              Best of luck on your 550!

                  Crag Antler lives right in that neck of the woods... Lurch is not too far off either. Good guys, I'm jealous you live right off that road. I would ride it every day if I could!

                    NH doesn't require a title for anything 1999 or older.
