    Very nice indeed but as with every month's BOTM, is the owner a member here? Must be but why do we not hear from him or her?

        My totally unbiased opinion is that is one very superb BOTM. Looks like another survivor, as in unrestored original.

          If you want to contact the owner, his email address is shown on the BOTM page. Some people prefer to keep their personal identity private when joining a web forum, and the GS Resources respects that choice, so the forum screen name isn’t displayed on the BOTM page….but as you’ve seen over the years, some GS forum members include their screen names within the write-up of their BOTM submissions.

            Few months back when calling for submissions and reading the photo requirements, i didn't think any of mine would qualify. To much background interference and didn't think the condition was up to restoration standard. After looking through all the past BOTM pics i will submit a couple of pic of my bike.Seems it i in a rare bracket, only one other GS650E ha been included since the beginning of BOTM. Been a couple or 3 of the GS650G's.

            Look forward to seeing if my GS650Ez is of good enough quality to be considered. Working on cropping, resizing and choosing the 2 to be sent in.

                I don't know why I don't see any picture? I could see "June's".
