Don't know much about that machine specifically, but I do know that the better you take care of it, the better it will be to you. Hopefully the person you bought it from knew that too. I also highly advise that you have fun with it.

it is a loverly bike with a good history.

most people love the inderpendnt rear suspention, even if it looks a bit strange! it works well.

often they get a problem with the fuel tap being broken that lets fuel pass through the vacume line and it floods the motor, but is easy to fix.

often the carbi can get worn on the older bikes with high mileage (worn in the needel and needle jet) and it makes the bike run rich. once again easy to fix.

and then there is the issue with the carbi getting contaminated with rust dust and dirt which makes its way in to the carbi (but it happens to every bike)

some times the slave cyliners in the front brakes get old and rusty and make the brakes get stuck on a little bit, but it is only a every 5 years or so thing to have happen.

but it is a good all round bike that suzuki shops (like where I work) sadly miss! and wish it would come back in production, we still have farmers asking for them, even tho is it 6 years after production stopped!
