Gs 550
Suzuki · on record 2014 to 2025
The Suzuki Gs 550 belongs to the GS and GSX family and is a road or sports motorcycle, not a conventional passenger car. The Gs 550 belongs to Suzuki's broad GS and GSX road motorcycle tradition, which stretches from everyday standards and Bandits to GSX R sports bikes and the Hayabusa line. For the Gs 550, retaining the full registration code matters because its letters and numbers can distinguish capacity, generation or specification from neighbouring entries.

Inside the surviving fleet
AutoCensus parses every DVLA variant description, so the fleet can be read by fuel and specification rather than as one number.
First registrations by year
When surviving examples first joined the British fleet.
Recent UK first registrations
This family is no longer sold new. These figures are imports and historic vehicles joining the British register for the first time.

Full methodology
Population history combines DVLA VEH0120 Q4 census observations through 2013 with the annual VEH0220 census from 2014 onward. Figures before 2014 cover Great Britain only. Historical VEH0120 is used only when its overlapping UK observations reconcile to the current canonical family definition. Vehicles are grouped into this family using the DVLA GenModel together with durable routing rules for known inconsistencies.
Variant figures are parsed from raw DVLA model descriptions and the original string is always retained. Configuration is only assigned where the model description explicitly identifies it; a blank configuration is not treated as a two door Wrangler. Blank transmission fields are shown as manual because DVLA records the field for automatic vehicles.
MOT figures count tests, not vehicles, and geographic figures count each vehicle at its most recent test location. The decline projection is a straight line fitted to the latest five years and is illustrative only.
