Suzuki introduced another shaftie in 1980 fitting a shaft drive the GS 1000L, GS 1000GL used the same mechanics as the GS1000G but borrowed the style of the GS 1000L with smaller fuel tank, high handlebars and stepped seat. Notice the different front fork. The beefy air-cooled engine was a real hammer and offered as a short stroke with a stroke-bore ratio of 64.8 x 70 mm a respectable capacity of 997 cc. Although only two valves per cylinder in the DOHC head Celt, 90 hp (68 Kw)  at the crankshaft roller bearings were solid given and much more important for a chopper 81 Nm at 7,000 rpm
