I dig it! If you like it f' what everyone else likes on here -
My New to me GR650 I grabbed for $400, sitting in mechanic shop for over 15 years, 14k miles. New tires, Brakes and carb clean, fork seals, past state inspection and she runs like a top. Over a thousand carefree miles. My favorite 80's Suzuki twin I've ever ridden. Way more fun then my friends old 2008 GS500F. I have to say Suzuki did a great job on this one.... Too bad it never caught. I think the dumb Tempter name killed it. Everyone that see's the bike say the name is dumb but the bike is frickin awesome! Allot of fun this one!

Here is a Canadian 1983 GS400E. I sold it two years ago but think it should be included here. It had a great sounding 8 valve engine.Last edited by Guest; 01-11-2015, 02:17 PM.Comment
