1979 Suzuki GS1000S Wes Cooley, exceptional original condition, Vin Number and Engine number are proper "S" model numbers and can be forwarded on request. Nothing (except all new to original spec paintwork) on this bike is restored, just exceptionally well kept up over the past 40 years
Rubber parts, paint, fasteners, frame and chrome all look excellent. The gauge cluster and individual instrument bezels and indicator needles are not faded and look to be in exceptional condition. The exhaust is original and in exceptional condition everywhere
The original inner black plastic dash panel shows no cracks and the hidden original  “S” model flip-switch still shuts off the dash mounted clock for those times when the bike is not ridden or when it is parked for longer periods. (Common battery drain problem with owners who dont know about this switch :-)
This has the correct seat with original seating surface heat-imprint vinyl in excellent condition and the foam core is not sat through as with so many high mileage bikes of this type. The bike has run only 22k kilometers just shy of 14k miles) as indicated on the odometer and all wear and tear components on the bike, such as rotors, foot-pegs etc. indicate the shown mileage to be correct. This bike comes with the original owners manual, toolkit, correct Suzuki air gauge in its original red plastic pouch inside its original Suzuki card board box as well as the Suzuki riding instructions and the Suzuki service plan booklet. The toolbox door inside the tailpiece is intact and barely used, often these are cracked or broken off due to the folding hinge in the plastic being worn out
Two correct and 100% original type Mirrors stamped sheet-metal housing, cast plastic-arm, heat-molded plastic glass enclosure and convex mirror glass) are included with the bike, but are not mounted due to them being just too valuable nowadays. Anyway, the mirrors tend to fold flat against the fairing when ridden at speeds over 120 km/h so they do not really work well in medium and higher-speed riding conditions. The original master cylinder is in excellent condition, but since the bike was ridden quite regularly up until few years back more modern unit was installed together with the modern brake lines to give some better brake performance than the quite dated and rather weak period items provide on all GS1000 models. Suffice to say its easily returned to original, all parts are present and accounted for and in excellent condition
For those discerning collectors and enthusiasts alike who were going to write to me and mention the non-original fiberglass headlight fairing: Included in this sale is also one original type fairing, NOS, unfaded and unused, still wrapped in plastic bag and packed away in card board box. See the collage picture in my online album. It was the sample from which the paintjob was re-created to match everywhere perfectly. Paint was done on cost-no-object basis by R&H Lackierei in Germany, one of the top 10 motorcycle painters anywhere, worldwide
