Hello members of the forum. I recently purchased my first bike, a 1988 Suzuki GS450l with 7,000 miles on it from the original owner. Just starting out riding, taking riding lessons, and practicing on my bike. Will post pics soon.

Welcome aboard. Please create a signature with bike info. It’s much appreciated. You’ll find it under Settings at the top of the page.
Hopefully your riding “lessons” include a Motorcycle Safety Course.
Yes we want to see pics.
Most of GS’s you’ll read about on this forum are ‘85 and older but you’ll find good info here that pertains to your bike too. Don’t be afraid to ask questions in the appropriate sub forum. Good place to start reading is the Top 10 Newbie Mistakes Thread linked in my signature. -

Three years ago I bought a 450t with about the same milage, hadn't been tagged in 22yrs. This forum was indispensible in helping me get it up and running! Put 26k miles on it before trading it for a Goldwing in need of maintenance. It'll be worth the effort, they are bulletproof little machines once the bugs are sorted out.2001 Kawasaki Voyager XII (Current bike)

Nice condition! If it's an '85, it doesn't appear to be much different than the earlier bikes so check out the twins section...and Manuals and info (tons!) here:
