    new member with 82 GS-850 G

    Hey guys, my name is Greg M, I'm 23 and I recently got a beautiful 82 GS850 and its a G model of course. Just moved to SoCal for school, and my motorcycle is my only vehicle and its all i need! Just wanted to thank all the helpful people on this forum, especially BassCliff and his website. Just ordered a bunch of supplies to keep my bike lookin and running good, about to do my first oil change, gear oil change and all that general maintenance stuff. I'll upload a pic to my profile when i get around to getting a pic.

            1998 Honda ST1100 (Daily long distance rider)
            1982 GS850GLZ (Daily rider when the weather is crap)

            Darn, with so many daily riders it's hard to decide which one to jump on next.;)
