 its the 5 spoke solid rims! got a kick start but now i got the starter lectrics sorted im after a cheap starter motor for it also need a top end braided front brake hose but i might just get that new as it is the brakes!!!
 i also may have made some work for my self as i had a silicone packet suck into the carb and all the way out the pipe (whoops) dont know what damage that has done as i had to get my bandit back on the road to use after 3 years cos i droped my r6 of the stand after a rear blow out ! then i had to sell the bandit to get the rear tyre and leaver and pegs for the r6 then im going to have to sell the r6 to finish the oilfield and the gs (well thats the plan !!) as you can see ive had and still got a lot on my plate right now lol

firstly www.oldskoolsuzuki.info is just about the most informative place on earth for suzuki nuts. as for the starter, send me a picture. most gs stuff is generic, and ive a couple of gs550 and gs 650 starter motors in the shed also some gsx1100 ones.

measure the diamiter of the hole the starter goes into, and the distance between the 2 m6 bolts that hold it in and let me know.

its about 6" from the back to where it fits to the cog/spindle about 3.5" wide and the bolts are about 1.5" apart
