Topic: Looking for a way to transport a 1980 Suzuki GS450E from MI. back West..

[grcamna2]

I want to purchase a GS450 which is in Mt. Clemens,MI. to where I live in my Apt. in Davis,CA. in April.
I am 'financially challenged' but will find a way.The man is a friend and he operates a boatyard and he will help from his end.I could travel a bit East to collect it on the Zephyr train if somebody was driving back West with a trailer but couldn't make it all the way to CA.  PM's are welcome.  thanks,Bill

I have used Uship.com  before with good results you can even track the delivery along the way with some of the carriers

Honda 750 It was years ago I think it was Iowa to Oregon for $700.00? 
Insured and in a enclosed trailer you can name your price and hold out for a deal in my case I wanted ASAP.

I just recd. a text message from the owner of the bike in MI. and,wouldn't you know it.. He said he changed his mind and now won't sell the bike to me !    Ah,'it takes all kinds'.. as the saying goes.That bike has less than 10K !
I am now open again and looking to find a nice 1980-83' GS450E.

A kid in high school had an 81, it was a rat but sure was fast for a 450.

Well that sucks if I come across I'll let you know. There was one for sale in my area last summer it was a really clean low mileage bike they were asking $1500.00 OBO. I have a 82 GS1100 lots of torque!

A really decent low mileage bike is what I desire.

Hi Steve,I'm not really into the 2-speed GS450GA automatic:my left foot would fall asleep..
