Motorcycle Forum / General / Sportbikes / July 20061983 Suzuki GS650L
Just bought this bike and it needs work and parts. Is the wiring diagram available anywhere besides in a original or Clymer manual? Want to hook up the things that have been disconnected. I might be odd to ask but where is the switch to turn high beam headlight on as its not on handle bars and headlight connector has been cut off. At the moment it's missing CDI, coils, battery, air filter and air box cover, and other parts. If I boost jump to the battery cables, but starter is not turning, am I missing out on something as previous owner said he was able to turn engine over. or is it bad switch? Also noticed that when it was in the truck being moved it gently laid over and leaked oil from some place. Is that abnormal?

Few in AMS are even old enough to know much about a 1983 street motorcycle, much less your vast problems that lay ahead. BTW IMO, bad choice in buying an old bike in poor condition, regardless of price. This group "mostly" deals mostly with cutting edge (2000 or newer) consumer bikes.

Are you saying the housing is gone? You have a lot of work ahead. Plenty of running GSs out there cheap...you may want to consider finding a running one and using that one you have for parts.

Not as cheap as I paid, and I think with a couple of hundren dollars mine will be fine. It is actually a GS650GLD made in 11/82 and I have never heard of that designation before.

Ahhh. If it's like my GS850, then the blinker switch is the high beam also. Just slide the blinker switch up or down for high/low. > > You have a lot of work ahead.

Same buttom as the directional. Up/down for highbeams, left/right for blinkers. John > These guys might be of some help: > http://www.thegsresources.com/ > > BTW, high beam is on the left grip.

Decal is worn off so cant read.
