1980 GS1000G - Smoke at start-up - should I buy?

It looks nice, at least what you can see. That's worth a lot in my opinion. I bought a 60,000 mile 1100G a decade ago. A couple times, it had a real big blue smoke fest upon start up. It ran about 10,000 miles in my loaner fleet. I gave it to my brother after the last tour, which was over 5000 miles. The previous tours were only a couple thousand miles. It has never had any top end maintenance beyond valve adjustment. My brother says it will still occasionally smoke at start-up, still but I haven't seen it. It never did it all when used regularly.Last edited by 850 Combat; 02-11-2019, 07:46 PM.sigpic Too old, too many bikes, too many cars, too many things
