Been along time since I had a decent project to get stuck into. Well today all the stars aligned and after trying to track down the owner of this little stunner I finally got to speak to him. I first saw this bike in 2020 when house hunting. In a ramshackle lean too under a tarp the rear light was sticking out. I knew straight away what it belonged to. Over the last 4 years I popped over to knock on the door with no success. Today I was on an errand for the boss and as I’ve not been over that way in 12 months I decided to see if she was still there. Well bugger me as I drove past the owner of the house came out. We after a little conversation and some bribery with funny money I’m now the proud owner of a genuine 1979 Suzuki GS1000S. The plan is to return her to her former showroom condition. Those who know me know I like to name my special bike so ladies and gents meet Christine.
