    Bought another gs1100gk - Number 3

    So I have just bought another one. So now I have three GKs. This one has been dropped. Though still registered and rides OK. Motor and gearbox good. $800AU... that's probably about $2.57c in US dollars * HAHA. Will probably use the GK specific stuff as parts and make this one a naked summer rider. 7 - Copy.jpg Did also come with the front fairing etc, but is a bit cracked and scraped from a low side. mmm... Maybe I will put on a 1970s style bikini fairing. Who knows what dastardly deeds will happen in my shed over winter?!!
    (*Actual $600US)
    Looking at bike prices in the US you have older Jap bikes so cheap over there. You are all so lucky.

    Unless you're the one who poured your heart into bringing one back to life and now have to sell it, then not so much!


    I still would like a GK someday. My 850 G is pretty darn close though.

      I guess you never think that you would sell a good one that you've spent lots of time and $ on. At the moment it's a buyers market for sure. Yeah not much different from 850 to 1100 really. Sure there's more power but overall very similar. I have an 850G as well.
