GS Sightings

[Nashzuki]

Where did you get your rear rack and backrest? I have an 82 GS650G and I am looking for a rack and back rest combo so my wife will ride with me.

That horse wanted to leave the stall.

Ah.... you asking me...?

I posted picture of a bike I happened to find (the main point of this thread) ... not my bike, have not even met the owner, so, ah, I cant say.

Wait... there is no back rest in the pics.... you a real person....? (maybe the bots have some new tricks).

Rack looks like a KG brand rack. They made lots of universal racks about that time. I have one I found on eBay. If you search KG in motorcycle parts you will probably find one. Some of them have back rests, but I don't see one on the bike in the picture either. I have seen them here in the classifieds also.

GS GL seen at the Elks lodge in town.

I swear I saw GS Scott on I-89 heading south from Waterbury yesterday...

[BigD_83]

Popped out to pick up some new headphones as I am now sharing an office, and couldn't find the free motorcycle parking that used to be near the store so ended up parking a few blocks away. I saw a red GS400E ('83 I think) with a 4 into 1 header parked on the same block. Didn't see the owner, and it was gone when I got back.

There are a few 400/450 models of that age around, but this one didn't look familiar to me

(I really need to pick up a cell phone just for the camera)

850L Grand Haven Michigan

THis afternoon, about 430, north bound US31 headed toward Grand HAven.

Took me about 4 miles to catch up to you, and did only because stopped at this light (Ferris).
But could not get up next to you to get your attention, so I was just sneaky and took a picture.

(NOte to self, hold camera phone closer to window so doesnt focus on window.)

THen a little later you turned west (Rosey Mound), and I was about to turn east (Comstock), but almost diverted to followed you, but then thought I would have to say "...no, not stalking you, just showing interest...."

Nice 850, had some of the L modified out of it. Modified exhaust but not at all loud.
82 I suspect.

Just followed a rider on a clean 77 GS750 to the Walgreens at A1A and Palm Valley Rd. Slightly modified but nice. Says he knows of GSR.

[cowboyup3371]

Ran across a GS750L with red lettering on the seat, pods and a blued Vance and Hines 4 to 1 at Iron Pony today but didn't see the rider.

[wymple]

Met a guy today with a 79 850G. Pretty nice with 20K on it. Not a spot of oil or mist on the fins. Needed some assistance on small problems and didn't know about GSR. He does now.

Whoa stalker

[Burque73]

I came acrossed a very well broken in 450 L today. This bike looks really rough but I'm happy for it as it obviously gets ridden A LOT! I didn't see the owner and when I came out of the store the bike was gone.



It even had a kicking sound system!

[dorkburger]

Saw this at the shop when getting my tire installed.
