    Do you have a good pan or nothing at all. Reason I'm asking as you can get a cover from Pit Replica. https://www.ebay.com/itm/SUZUKI-GS65...item28418ffc7b

    Whole seat on eBay $50, but no pic of the pan. https://www.ebay.com/itm/SUZUKI-GS65...item28418ffc7b

      I just bought this cover and it worked out very well, if you do go this route, the secret to having it fit well is it needs to be warmed up till its quite hot, I left it in the hot sun for a few hours, then I was able to slowly stretch it over the seat pan and keep working it till it was all uniform tightness.

      The seat pan for 1981 650E & 1982 650E are identical, not sure about any other models though.

      This is the 650E Seat https://www.ebay.com/itm/1981-suzuki...ZZEnnC&vxp=mtr

      Ask for more pictures from the seller, it actually looks in OK condition and you may get lucky with that pan.

      The other other one listed as a 650E seat on ebay looks like a 650 GL so probably will not work.

        Unfortunately the seat pan on this bike is completely roached. The bike sat in a barn for 9 years and it looks like the seat was left on the cold wet ground. The rest of The bike is in surprisingly good condition considering the storage conditions. I'll need a seat and some passenger foot rest brackets and it looks like that's about it.
