GS1100E hint, hint I tell you what, you are welcome to come up and take a ride on any of them, anytime you want. I looked around, last night after the Cooley arrived, I think six is my limit, space-wise, for now. I was thinking of making an offer on the 550F I've been looking at, but I'm not sure where I would put it. Ok! Looks like a heat wave is expected on Sunday? Only six? You'll need to secure additional shop space!And six bikes is a lot for me. When do I have time to ride them all?

Since you've got 3 Suzuki's now and the Cooley will be getting most of the attention for a while you might be thinking about thinning out your stable in the future. GS1100E hint, hint

For instance, I never shop with my wife anymore, that allows time for bikes!
I know this is not fair to ask this question so soon, you haven't even got a chance to ride the Cooley yet have you. But of the 3 Suzuki's is the Wes Cooley going to be your favorite . Nice pics. I've done the same thing HD during bad weather, I'll roll a bike out of the garage take a few outside shots and roll it back in
Doubt he rode it but hope he fired it up! How's that V&H(?) exhaust sound?Looks great in the snow!
Find out if it's a 1100E, G, L, etc. Some are collectable. Let me know and get pics.

Hi HDog - Congrats, what a beauty! Can't wait to see some proper "on the road " pics without that white crap!
Hey Dog....doing a little research on the value of my buddies '82 GS1100. Not a whole lot of them for sale. This one on ebay is going for crazy money, dont ya think??http://www.ebay.com/itm/221359521539?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

That auction is being watched with great interest over at the Suzuki GS forum. We all would like to see it go for alot of money, makes our worth more. This one is pretty pristine, extremely low mileage, all original, a collector's dream..... I would rather buy a rider, than a museum piece. So... your friend's bike is a GS1100E?
I believe it was last run a year ago, the old guy was good about draining the carbs. Only 11K mikes. It's in Florida and I'm going to FL next month but only for four days and not in the same area. Might pass this along to my nephew who's been bugging me to sell him a bike. But, if he gets in a bad wreck, I would feel slightly responsible, so I am torn?

If I were you, I'd find a way to get it home, then toil over who gets the bike. You could also let me buy it.... I know how to love Suzy's... And I know a guy who would pick it up for me.....
