The GS450 was a Suzuki motorcycle produced in the early 1980s. It was a two-valve design of the four-valved GSX400 hence based on the pressurized oil and shell bearing GSX block like its successor, the GS500 twin.
Model variants include the GS450E, GS450L, GS450S, GS450T, and GS450GA Suzukimatic. The GS450 series was a direct competitor to the Honda CM400 / CM450 series. The GS450A Suzukimatic was only produced for 2 years 1982 and 1983 coinciding with the change of the CM400A Hondamatic up to the CM450A, as a direct response to the GS450A Suzukimatic. Both the Suzukimatic and the Hondamatic ceased production after the 1983 model year.[1]
