Title: 81-Suzuki GS-550-"T" Post by: kilowop on October 18, 2023, 08:40:21 PM This little bike astounds me every time I fire it up after it sits for sometimes several weeks, out in the carport. Takes but a few seconds and it is running. Within a few minutes it's warmed up and idling. Spent a couple hours today sorting out some wiring for my heated jacket liner. Since the insurance is good until Oct. 29th, I might as well get in some riding time, if the weather cooperates. This time of year, it's IFFY at best.
CHEERS Title: Re: 81-Suzuki GS-550-"T" Post by: hardrockminer on October 19, 2023, 04:31:55 AM I was impressed when I saw it. Also impressed with Sweetum's KZ550, although the carbs on it were finicky.
