    Hello!

    I just bought this 1977 GS750 and obviously had to register to this forum.

    Still four months until riding season. New shock springs and a new set of tires and I'm ready.

        Its two Yamahas, XT660R and TTR125.

        I got the XT last summer after some years risking health and licence on a Ducati. Turns out you can ride like an idiot on anything.

        When this GS came along I had to buy. It is the right model for me. Spoked wheels, 8 valve engine, kickstart and a 750. Very beautiful bikes as well.

          Yes. And a nice one.

          Always interesting to see how the European models have some differences in the stripes.

          I am wondering if the tires (having raised while lettering) might be several many years old.

          THanks for posting pics.

            Great looking 750 especially with the twin disc spoke set-up.
            If you haven't found it...here is the spot to find manuals and fix-its for your GS. http://members.dslextreme.com/users/bikecliff/

            Only knew of the XT Motard version, the dirt model must be a blast.

                Ah, yes! Another 750!!!

                Welcome to the site! Beautiful bike as said. I see it has a 4-1 exhaust...which I dig.

                Can't wait to see pics in 4 months with spectacular backdrops of your country.

                    Paint and stripes are fresh from our local restorer.

                    I just want to ride.
