For a 81 gs650gl clutch cable is p/n 58200-34X03 : length over outer casing including end fittings is 54.5 inches
 
any more takers, surely a couple fo you have an old clutch cable and a tape measure to help a GS fan out?
 
Kind of hard to tell from your pic but looks like an L cable would work best. Might be better to measure the length you need and we can compare to that. If you post a pic of the bike from the side it might help as well.

Run a wire or something from the clutch perch to the clutch actuator arm to determine what length you need. Z1Enterprises.com lists clutch cable lengths. Sort by Motion Pro and then see what length matches your application. THEN DO NOT BUY MOTION PRO as many don't have the fixture on the actuator end to connect to the arm on the clutch itself and they have no center adjust point which can be handy if you have "custom" application. Buy the genuine Suzuki cable that comes closest to the size needed.
