My first bike was a GS550L (1985) king & Queen seat. It was an awesome bike for a 550. The cool thing it had a 16" front tire just like a sport bike.
Same specs as a GSE, but sat differently. I used beat my friends racing up the mt roads of PA. They did not know about counter stearing.. It was a grreat bike when I went to college for my first BS degree in the early 1990's Now I have a 1993 750 Nighthawk. I that I love. Just needs some more TLC and rear shocks. Have great day.
