Question:in 1988 did they make a blue and white 1100? Motorcyclist Magazine road test from that year says colors available:red/black & blue/white.Suzuki parts counter guy says there is no listing for blue bodywork.I saw an blue & white 88 a long-long time ago,but thought it was repainted.The owner says "NO,it's original".I call foo-foo on him.He says "FUCK-OFF it's oem"Anyway did they make one and just didn't bring it to the states?I figure somebody woulda' snuck one in somehow.Anybody know???

Yes, there was a b/w (the faster color) available in `88:

The parts guy prolly is right as well though... it's my understanding that the OEM plastic comes unpainted.

Yeah,just probally didn't sell it in the U.S. so he didn't have a listing for it.

Don't forget that a lot of older parts are delisted and unavailable, so both could easily be right.
