Vehicle Information
Suzuki GS425 Motorcycle - Street (1979)
The 1979 Suzuki GS425 is a classic motorcycle known for its reliable performance and accessible design. It features a 423 cc air-cooled parallel twin engine, delivering 40 horsepower, and a 6-speed transmission. This model was an evolution from the earlier GS400, with its engine bored out to 423 cc prior to the 1979 model year. For 1979, Suzuki offered the GS425 in at least two distinct trims: the standard GS425E and the cruiser-styled GS425L, which included features like a "King and Queen" seat and specific wheel sizes (19" front, 18" rear). There were no further mid-cycle generation or engine changes specifically within the 1979 model year for the GS425, ensuring consistent specifications across its variants for that year. FAQ:

| Air Filter | Regular cleaning | Clean and re-oil with every tune-up or more frequently if operated under dusty conditions. Type: oiled foam. |
| Coolant | Not applicable | The 1979 Suzuki GS425 features an air-cooled engine, so there is no liquid coolant system to maintain. |
