Better known for their two strokes Suzuki joined the four-stroke revolution in 1977 with the GS750, a bike that matched European standards of handling but with Japanese build quality and performance levels. A year later the full 1000cc version was launched setting a new benchmark in the superbike division. In 1979 the 'S' version arrived sporting a nose cone fairing, 18" rear wheel and race inspired paintwork going on to dominate AMA superbike racing in the USA with riders such as Wes Cooley and Graeme Crosby.

This Suzuki GS1000S was a daily rider for the previous owner and has formed part of an enthusiast’s small collection of machines. In ownership the engine has been fully rebuilt, however, it has hardly been used since. A correct numbers machine, it will require some light recommissioning before use. A current V5C is offered on file.
