    How many miles on your GS

    I was just reading feelerguagephil's thread (On Patrol). He said he stopped a guy on a GS 850 that has 120,000 miles on it. It got me to thinking how many miles other members have on theres. My 1980 GS 1000L has 26,625 miles and it still looks and runs like new.

    80 gs550.... odometer says 25k, but it isn't orginal, so who knows how many it really has...

      If you love it, let it go. If it comes back....... You probably highsided.
      1980 GS550E (I swear it's a 550...)
      1982 GS650E (really, it's a 650)
      1983 GS550ES (42mpg again)
      1996 Yamaha WR250 (No, it's not a 4 stroke.)
      1971 Yamaha LT2 (9 horsepower of FURY.)

                    80 GS850G 61 thousand miles. Got it in 94 with 35 thou.
                    Running strong, only major engine work has been head gasket and replacing float bowl valves & screens.

                    The GS shafties are great. Have not had to deal with a chain since 1982. ( first bike in 1979 was chain, blahh)

                    Pictures on web page.

                    Had 850G for 14 years. Now have GK since 2005.

                      My '79 GS1000E has 125,000. All under my butt.
                      And on the seventh day,after resting from all that he had done,God went for a ride on his GS!
                      Upon seeing that it was good, he went out again on his ZX14! But just a little bit faster!

                        Miles

                        82 GS11100GK is about to turn over 25K. Only had 18K when I got it in April '03. Hopefully I'll get to the paint over Christmas and then it will look like new. Gotta find something for my son but I think an 1100 might be too much for a 16 year old regardless how respomsible he/she is.

                              The 750 has 20,500 miles, about 11k of which are mine, put on since April. The bike still seems brand new to me, it's just, like, perfect! The 550 has 37k, I put about 10 on it. It also runs great, but not like the 750. I also need to put a new R/R in it and go over the wiring before I let it out the door.
