For sale is my Suzuki GS550 1977, which I bought about 2 yrs ago. It had been laid up for many years, so I got it as a project. Having already owned one for 10 yrs, i thought it would be interesting.
Bike was totally stripped down.  Frame powder coated, by Birkenhead powder coaters, who did a great job on it.
Then I went through it from back to front, Tank stripped, primed, and repainted. Same for side panels.    Brakes done, back and front.
Engine taken apart for checking. Engine was good, so honed the bores, replaced the piston rings, cylinder head stripped down, new valve stem oil seals fitted, valves lapped in, new head gasket fitted. seals replaced throughout engine. Forks seals replaced, with fresh fork oil .Steering bearings replaced.
Lots more work done on the bike, to much to list. I do have many photos of the work I did, which whoever buys it can have.
Needless to say, it has new tyres, and new chain.
When i bought it the test sticker on it said 1982. So I assume it wasn't used since then, hence the low miliage of just over 9000 miles.
A nice bike and well worth a look at.
Any questions, message me.
