    Seems to be sporting oversized tyres, or is that the blackout making that happen? If indeed those are fat tires for the wheels, you may find the handling to be a tad sluggish compared to the narrower, stock tyre.
    Suzuki changed the style in the early 80's to the slopey tail sections and different side panels like the ones sold in the USA. My 1980 was completely different to the one you have.

      Nice looking bike, I bet you feel a lot better riding it than the 125 !. The gs550 likes to rev but they are happy just plodding along also. Welcome to the site.

              Ahhhh, reminds me of commute between Wethersfield to Haverhill...with Finching Field and Steeple Bumsted in between.
