Copied from the introduction forum:
Last Friday I purchased a '82 Suzuki GS450A Suzukimatic (automatic!) - partially as a hold-me-over until I can find a great dual-sport, but also because I wanted to introduce another vintage bike to my fleet. I couldn't have asked for anything nicer and I got the bike for a very reasonable price. I never thought I'd enjoy riding an automatic motorcycle, but you know, I've been very pleasantly surprised to find that the lack of a clutch, etc, doesn't take away from the riding experience at all.
Here are the pics I took when I first picked it up. I've since done A LOT of cleaning, checking, tweaking, and it looks even better. I'm leaving the bike bone stock and wouldn't think of screwing with this in anyway other than just regular upkeep.
I'd love to know if there are any other Suzukimatic riders here.
