Hi Mark,
This is my
1985 Suzuki GS1150E. I am the original owner of this bike.
I bought her new in April, 1989 from my local Suzuki
dealership. Yes, 1989. The story I was told is Suzuki
Japan found a bunch of 1985 bikes that never made it to
the showroom floor. My local dealership acquired two of
the 1150’s, one blue and white 1150E and one red and white
1150ES.
Luckily, I was
there the day they uncrated the bikes and put them on the
showroom floor for sale. I immediately fell in love and
bought the gorgeous blue and white one. So although she is
a 1985 model, she didn’t breathe life until 1989. I rode
the bike for a few years, and then with moving around a
lot and job changes and marriage and kids, the bike was
stored (properly) until February, 2004.
Once out of
storage and into my garage, I completely went through the
bike and got her back on the road. New tires, battery,
fork seals, carbs rebuilt, etc. and a meticulous detail
job, and she was looking and running better than new! She
turns a lot of heads and gets compliments wherever I go. I
hope you enjoy looking at her as much as I enjoy riding
her!
Thanks
for a great website
