1978 Suzuki GS1000c
This tax and MOT exempt 1978 Suzuki GS1000C has recently been imported from North America where it has spent all its life – the air is thin and the climate is far kinder to motorcycles than ours.
We have been unable to confirm this mileage reading. Please disregard it.
The single most important purchase for a classic restoration project is the bike to restore, whether it’s going to be a commercial venture or just a hobby interest it all starts here!
PLEASE CHECKOUT THE PICTURES…….. As you can see this bike has a few parts missing – battery and original RH side panel being the most obvious. The non-standard metal RH side panel is dented, the throttle is stiff, the seat cover is torn, there are marks in the paint and the seat base is rotten through.
BUT NOW FOR THE GOOD NEWS……… The wheels are straight but the alloy is quite oxodised. The forks and yokes look straight with good chrome. The tail light assy is good as are the headlight and bowl but the rim is pitted. Instruments look ok and switches move freely The tank is quite rusty inside. The indicators are tidy. The chain guard is tidy. Both mud guards are solid and front is straight and bright. The standard exhaust is solid but silencers have some dents. The engine is cosmetically clean. We have had it firing/running on easystart spray but the fuel system & carbs will need attention.
