    1983 GS450A Manual

    I picked up a GS450A Suzukimatic, Yay! I have been looking for a manual for it and can only find these manuals, but only one seems specific to my model. There are the Clymer and Haynes manuals, but they look to be for all the other models and not for the Suzukimatics. I found the factory service manual for the 450A on Ebay. Anyone have experience with the Factory manual? If so, is it complete or will I need to get one of the after market manuals to supplement the factory manual.

    Oh yeah, there is a supplemental manual for the GS450a, this worth purchasing?

    Example of the Service Manual on ebay:

          Yes, there are a couple others out there, and one of them is supposed to be scanning his manual so we can addit to BassCliff's library.

                  The factory manual for my 1150 is quite helpful.

                          Wow, 10 years! Thanks for doing that. I'm sure that will be useful to someone. I think the 450A is kind of a nifty bike. A local Custom Bike (mostly V-twins) shop had one on the lift a few weeks ago when I was in to get my state inspection. He also had a '78 Hondamatic CB400A (I think) in the shop. I always thought if my wife ever got the urge to ride, I'd look for something like that for her. She never did, probably never will. Oh well.

                          Maybe bwringer can get the link up on BikeCliff's Website.
