This just got dropped in my lap(almost literally). All I know of it at this point is that it's a 35+ year old barn find. Has seen very little road time, only has 3003mi on the clock. No idea of year.... yet. Stay tuned.

I always wanted a GT380 or GT550, mostly because of the cool air scoops over the cooling fins. Don't think I ever even rode either one. Nice score.

Not 100% sure but believe it to be a 73' first year of disc brake and last year of individual carbs, meaning not on a rack. I had a 74 and the carbs were different than yours1984 GS1100GK newest addition to the heard
80 GS 1000gt- most favorite ride love this bike
1978 GS1000E- Known as "RoadKill" , Finished

Its a 1974 if the tank decal is correct.
You can determine the model year from the VIN.

Thanks all for the info and kind words. Who knows when I'll get to this one!?! I have a 650G, 650L chop, & a 425E that all need attention yet. It has no paper or keys, missing both airbox side covers, has a busted up oil tank, and the engine is locked up. Gonna be a project LOL.Comment

Nice bike. I kind'a remembered those were two cycle jobs and the specs posted by jacbc bore that out Thanks. Have fun.Comment

Yeah, I thought they were cool as well. "Ram Air" Like a Pontiac! I just really didn't like 2 stroke street bikes. Passed on several Kawasakis because of that.Originally posted by tkent02 View Post

I love them, especially now when most people don't have the slightest idea what they are.
Unfortunately they are getting hard to find around here.

I dig the "ram air" scoop also. I'm on the fence on which GT engine I like better. Those or the 750.Originally posted by tkent02 View Post
A neat little GT 25o pops on CL about every year here - no one seems to want it......sigpic

It will be worth it. Super cool. Pretty wide powerband for an oil burner.Comment

I'll be honest, I love 2-strokes. Reminiscent of my microsprint days. Oh! It was manufactured 4/74, it's precisely 3 yrs older than me.Last edited by Guest; 08-17-2016, 08:21 AM.Comment

I put thousands of miles on a GT380. A friend had a 185, and we rode them all over the Southeast on weekends.Originally posted by tkent02 View PostComment
