Suzuki joined the four-stroke revolution in 1977 with the GS750. A year later the full 1000cc version was launched setting a new benchmark in the superbike division. In 1979 the 'S' version arrived sporting a nose cone fairing, 18" rear wheel and race inspired paintwork going on to dominate AMA superbike racing in the USA with riders such as Wes Cooley and Graeme Crosby. The Suzuki GS1000S model was a super sports variation of the standard GS1000, with a distinctive paint scheme and fairing (aka the Wes Cooley replica).

This Suzuki GS1000S was restored to a good standard in 2013. It was then placed in a private collection until 2018. Since the current ownership, this GS has had a top-end overhaul and a new clutch. In addition, the forks have been re-chromed and painted and is now described by the vendor as ‘running well’ at the time of consignment. It is offered complete with a current V5C and various documents. Please note that frame is stamped with an ‘E’ instead of an ‘S’, however, the VJMC has confirmed the machine as an ‘S’.
