    I have a 1979 GS1000L

    Hello. I purchased a 1979 GS1000L earlier this year with only 21000km on it. I was hoping that it would be easy to get running but have run into some problems and could use some help. I have worked on several different Japanese motorcycles but this is the first Suzuki I have restored.
