This is a 1976 CB750 on a Amen Frame. The bike is raked just a little bit to give it that cool sleek look. Very Clean, flat black paint, Custom very high quality one off seat representing the Arizona Flag. Wrapped Pipes to keep that heat off your legs and a little extra horsepower. 21 inch skinny front wheel. Its a real nice bike, gets attention EVERYWHERE and offers to buy all the time, and now I have decided to sell. Starts on the first kick. Must see in person, pictures do not do it justice. Great tires and brakes, Sounds great, super loud and very responsive. Very easily customizable. Call or Text John 480-233-7210. Im only asking $5000. Thanks

I noticed that the stamping on the muffler indicates the model year as 1983 and that the system doesn't conform to U.S. emission standards.
 
"combines the sporty looks of the G with the shaft drive of the L"
THE PRICE!!!!
ive never heard of a gs1000gt, thats a pretty rare bike
 
Let's see - pick 3, any 3:

1. Parts painted that should not be?
2. Wrong gauges?
3. Coated exhaust?
4. Non-OE color?
5. Front tire is bald?
6. Missing rear turn signals?
7. Overall, rear tail piece looks wrong?
1. yep, the fork cross-piece and headlight trim
2. Gauges are off an L
3. yep
4. yep, but he said "Brand new paint". It's an OK color, just not stock. No biggie.
5. Your monitor must be better than mine, it's hard to tell
6. I couldn't see them, either
7. Again, your monitor is better than mine. I can't see much at the back.

Yeah, the price is a bit optimistic, if the bike is truly ready to ride with NOTHING to be done to it (includes new tires and brakes, etc.), it might go for up to $2000 in the right market. This just gives him some bargaining room. He also is trying to make it sound like only the L model had shaft drive. And the G was "sporty"?

Never heard of a GS1000GT? Look around, find any 1980 GS1000G. You just found a GS1000GT. :D

All Suzukis made for the 1980 model year carried the "T" designation at the end of the model.
My bike is a GS850GT.
My son's bike is a GS850GX because it's an '81.
My wife's bike is a GS850GLZ because it's an '82 "L".

And so are the forks and headlight. me thinks it has the wrong front end on it...

Just curious - how can you tell the forks themselves are from an L, and would that affect handling or stability - good or bad?
 
"Fully restored" to what? Some people can't grasp the meaning of the word.

You are correct. I was going to comment on the "L" headlight, but forgot. Did not notice the forks.

The "L" forks have a leading axle. If you also install the "L" triple trees you will be OK, but if you put them in the standard "G" trees, you will decrease the trail, which will affect stability and make it rather "twitchy".
