What is that, 1980 850G, somewhere around there? I thought maybe an L but does it have a tail cowl? and a not-chrome front fender?

They said were "headed back to Grand Rapids" (so 30-50 miles from me).
Leading axle fork, teardrop tank, step seat: Is an L (with flatter bars installed).
I think they said was an 81.
Saw this shiny one at a dealership in Le Noirmont, Switzerland, a few weeks ago. Looks like an 81 or 82 model to me, but I wouldn't know for sure.
It was part of this cool ensemble...

Nice. Good looking Slingshot next to it as well.

That's an '81. Square headlight easiest giveaway. (1980?)
Not sure why but in all my years of riding around the Portland/Vancouver area I have only seen 2 GS Suzuki?s. One was an 83 identical to mine at the Oaks park OVMC meet about 8years ago,the other was a stock appearing 77 or 78 750 that just happened to be riding the same direction. At least in these two cities you would think there would be more than a few around.
They're around.

I used to think the same thing about Albuquerque. Where'd they all go? Once I took a closer look, over the past few years ive seen several.
I actually saw one yesterday in town. Only a quick glimpse, but it looked like a late 70s 550 or 750. Ratty, flat black, no rear fender, but surprisingly it had a decent looking uncut stock exhaust.

saw the gs450matic that i posted on the for sale section today, talked to dude and told him about the valve adjustment, he didnt know what it was but he said the owner told him he did it recently, told him search this website up for help, didnt seem half bad just rough cosmetically, engine may have been louder than exhaust it was stock.
meant i saw the bike today, posted it a little while ago on here

Saw an 82 1100e in maroon earlier today. Unfortunately I couldn't get a picture or an opportunity to chat with its owner. Nice to see one in the wild.
Trevor, that is a gorgeous bike.
I had one of those Yosh pipes years ago and it was LOUD.
