The GS series was Suzuki Motor Corporation's first full range of 4-stroke powered road motorcycles, having previously almost exclusively manufactured 2-stroke machines. The first of the GS Series was the four-cylinder GS750 released alongside the GS400 parallel twin in November 1976. The GS750 engine was essentially patterned off the Kawasaki Z1-900, and became the design basis for all air-cooled Suzuki four-stroke fours until the release of the air-oil cooled GSX-R. The engine was fitted into a dual cradle frame with telescopic forks, twin rear shocks and a front single disc brake. The new GS750 was lauded for its handling at the time of its release, which was considered a significant improvement over Japanese contemporaries like the Honda CB750, the shaft-driven Yamaha XS750, or the more powerful but wayward handling Kawasaki 900.

This particular bike has come from a regular vendor who has owned it since 1997 and has had it dry stored for quite some time. It was put away as a runner but has not been started for at least 8 years, so it will require fully recommissioning. It comes with 2 keys, full UK V5, clear HPi report and a workshop manual. This bike will make a great usable classic after some work and should gain value once running.
