Hello,

Luckily you have a GS.
You can pretty much fit any sissybar that is made onto these bikes.
I have one from a kawasaki old school kz1000 chopper on my bike. I had to put extension straps on the front to bolt it to the shock mounts but it works like a charm and looks great to me.

Thanks BUT........

Thanks for the reply but mine has a single shock it says Full Floater on the bodywork,the GS range in the UK was superceeded by the GSX`s,a friend of mine has got a rack off a GS550 and it goes nowhere near it,to narrow and the mounting arms are too long,ah well keep trying,theres got to be one out there somewhere.

Be very very careful about using Straightline Racing, there are numerous stories abounding of payments made and goods not received and other nightmares. If you have to use them then, if possible, visit them in person to make sure that they have the right part in stock and its useable.

Straightline Racing were ripping people off 18 years ago, and still are.
It amazes me that they are still in business.
Apparently the company is now run by Nick Pepper, who went to the wall years ago, taking a lot of people for a lot of money. BUT he could afford to run a pro-stock drag-bike!
Be VERY careful.

Can you use a Krauser set up?
GS7.11 is selling a full set on ebay now.

Have you tried your Suzuki dealer?

Thanks for the warnings on Straightline. I have not yet used them and will be careful if I do. There is a company called Crooks Suzuki. They advertise in the MCN. I have used them for parts, they are not cheap but they are very good.
