    GS650G seat/tank on GS650GL?

    Hello to all.
    One of the shortcomings of my 81 GS650GL is the limited range of the 12L fuel tank. I've found a few good recycling yards where I may eventually find a 650G donor bike with its 16L tank. Given the configuration of the tank and seat, I expect to have to give up the stepped "L" seat. Has anyone done this? Will the fuel tanks and seats interchange (as a set)? I'd rather get advice from this forum before I spend the bucks on parts I can't use.

    Thanks in advance.

    Having both the 81 model 1000g and the 1000gl, I can tell you that the frames are little different and the mounting points for the tanks and the seats are completely different ... not saying that you couldn't make it work but it would most definitely be a challenge. 8)
