HOW MANY SUZUKI GS 500 FK5 ARE LEFT?

There are 87 SUZUKI GS 500 FK5 left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 169 SUZUKI GS 500 FK5 that are currently SORNED.

The total number of SUZUKI GS 500 FK5 was highest during 2008 Q3 (434). The number taxed topped out in 2008 Q3 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2024 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 178 (41%) SUZUKI GS 500 FK5 have been scrapped or exported.

During 2018 Q4 the number of SUZUKI GS 500 FK5 that were off the road (SORN) exceeded the number that were licensed for the first time. This could indicate the owners are reluctant to sell or scrap their car as they view them as a potential future classic.
