    New Member and New Bike

    Good afternoon, I picked this up last Saturday and was shocked when I went to check it out. 1982 GS1100L with what appears to be just over 8,000 original miles. Was on Craigslist and at a bargain basement price. Runs and rides but has a few leaks here and there I need to get sorted but overall great find. Will be reaching out for help with a few items starting the with carbs. I plan to remove the Vetter fairing this week. Looking forward to a winter project, will get a few more pics up soon.

          Now that youve got the site for manuals and the CV carb rebuild tutorial, heres the place for the oring kit and the intake manifold orings. 1 kit does the full rack of carbs. Take the manifolds off and measure the ID of the orings and order them accordingly.

          I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

              Put the pics on photobucket, http://s32.photobucket.com/user/cjba...1982%20GS1100L

              She needs a little TLC but overall I plan to return her to stock. I have a lot of research to do in order to determine what upgrades I should do as I plan on riding many miles next season.
