        i learned just a few days ago that there is a link to the homepage that shows the bike of the month in the blue bar at the very bottom of this and every forum page.

          The bike photo of the month is on the GSR web site home page, not the forum.

          Each page of the forum has a link at the bottom to get to the web site home page.

                      There he is. Thank you. We never seem to get that info in the BOTM posting, unless I’m just missing it.

                        That thing really brings back great memories, the blue "78" GS1000C was my second real bike, "77" GS750 being first. I owned it 3 times before losing track of it after installing a GS1100 eng. The comment, the alloy rims he has on there, aluminum rims are OEM for that bike. I'd bet $2 he still has the taller OEM handlebars, shoot he even has the OEM stickers on the chain guard. Great job Ron, it just don't get much better than that.

                          True that. It should be required so we at least have a clue as to who the owners are.

                            Any clue as to what brand? I wouldn't be surprised to see you show up on something called yamaha. I think the Yamaha brand is trying to take over the GS really.
