Hello GS people! I bought my first GS in 1982 (1100E) It was shipped to me from Seattle to Kodiak Alaska still in the original crate. I rode it from AK to TX then to my duty station in Alameda CA. I always regretted selling it. I've owned modern missile bikes (ZX12R) but the GS was always my favorite. I just bought a 1980 1100E project bike as a father son deal so the fun begins! My name is Casey, I'm retired military and current overseas contractor. See you in the forums!

I got two bikes, 80 1100E and an 83 1100GL Also 15 boxes of spare GS parts all for 1300.00! I plan on suspension upgrades ( hayabusa, bandit,gsxr...) and mild engine mods, mikuni RS carbs, mildport and polish, 1150 cams w/slotted cam sprockets. I think I'll keep the Kerker. I'll post a pic as soon as I figure out how. Thanks for the warm welcome!Comment
