Last week or so I rode by a Suzuki/Yamaha shop. Unfortunately it was closed. Tonight I made it there by 6:00 closing time. The owner had a small collection of motorcycles one was a GS 1000S! It looked beautiful. I looked at the miles and couldn't believe the low miles. Turns out the motorcycle has never been titled. They recently changed the fluids and rode it up the street and back. Says he was offered $25,000... he turned it down. I think the motorcycle belongs in the AMA or Babor's museum.

I'm not telling. Haha. It's at Action Cycle in Alliance, Ohio of all places. The shop has been in operation since 1972. For kicks I'll ask them if they have any S mirrors. HahaOriginally posted by 1978GS750E View PostMy Motorcycles:

Yes, better put it back storage so they don't fade to silver. LOL.Originally posted by storm 64 View Post
And even this one is missing the clock knob. Some ba$tard probably lifted it.'84 GS750EF (Oct 2015 BOM) '79 GS1000N (June 2007 BOM) My Flickr site http://www.flickr.com/photos/soates50/

Will do, I'll get the vin numbers. I'll definitely will be going back. I want to make friends with the fellow. I was on my Yamaha tonight. I'll ride my 1000e next time. 👍 You never know maybe he'd rather sell it to a local enthusiast than a museum or big time collector... now your dreaming Norm, pop that little vision out of your head. hahaMy Motorcycles:

Check on the mirrors, I need a right and a left. Since no one is riding that one, those two will do.
You would think that since the Chinese copy everything, someone would have made replica mirrors by now.
