GS Sightings

[willie]

Every so often I pass a guy on a GS550 on Fort Henry Drive in Colonial Heights, TN . Buddy, if you're reading this I'd sure appreciate a PM from you. I'd like to meet you in person and commend you for riding in the temps you do. The last time I saw you was crossing the bridge below the dam. The temp at the bank read 22 degrees. You were not behind a fairing. I'm impressed!

The only other GS i ever saw near me was a rather nice maroon 550, very tidy, it was often parked outside the oxford coffee shop leamington and an old boy (about 70 id say) with bubble visor helmet used to ride it. He tootled around town very sensibly for years and i think he'd probably outlived all his boy racer mates. I havent seen him in a while so maybe time finally caught up with him. I always quite fancied the bike myself, but never got around to making him an offer...

A GS 500E in Philly!

I saw a GS 500E parked on Cecil B. Moore Av. at 17th St. in Philadelphia.

850g

Stepped out on my porch a couple evenings ago just in time to see a suzy go by . Looked to be around an 1980 gs 850G not positive on the year it was black with the red stripe outlining the tank and the side cover . The bike looked pretty clean and original from what I saw of it . I was actually caught by surprise as its only the 3rd gs I have seen around here . Sighted cruising down north 6th st towards columbia blvd in st helens Oregon anyone here ?

Saw a Burgundy 83 E 750 or 1100 yesterday in Red Hook brooklyn, around 6pm was riding right in front of me, had a pipe and sounded very close to what mine sounds like.
I was in the car. Not sure if its anyone here though

I picked it up Redman. After Don picked up his Beemer, I doubt he's been on a GS since. Or maybe not

All I could catch was a Suzuki shaft drive, dark color maybe black or blue, other than that no time to see. But it was a solo rider.

750E Holland MI

Saw this in a small strip mall.
Would have looked around for rider, but was late for an appointment myself.
Did leave a GSR card.

Two blocks from home yesterday, I saw an oncoming bike turn left, ahead of me. I caught it in the other lane at the light and hollered out the window at the guy "I like your GK". Caught him off-guard, he said "thanks". The light turned green, we proceeded a block, I turned into my driveway, he kept going.

Looked like the bike could use a little TLC, but sounded OK.

Met Rob (AZR) for lunch today and we spotted this little beauty outside the motorcycle shop...

A really clean looking red GS twin passed by the front of my home in Freehold today, taunting me as I did yardwork...

[Redman]

Noticed somebody riding a dark colored GS shaft drive at noon today east bound on Heckscher Dr in Jacksonville, FL. Looked to be in pretty good shape.

Passed by a red-with-orange striping 750 something today, west of Lancaster PA on 283, took the exit for Hershey. As I looked at the model information on this website I noticed there's a 750D and a 750T. I don't know what those are.

Possibly an 83 700 or 84 750 Kawasaki, same stripes-nice bikes. Was the rest of the bike black?

Not an 83 700, No, I clearly saw the SUZUKI emblem and GS750[x] on the side panel. The engine sound was pretty high-pitched, making me think it was going at the higher end of the RPMs, though it was normal speed traffic. The rest of the bike mighta been black. I didn't get a good glimpse at its wheels or drive, and didn't notice whether it was an L or not, although I don't remember a bunch of chrome...
