Square headlight on 83 GS1100E???

[83GS1100E_Tornado]

At first, I didn't think I liked it. Now, I'm starting to warm up to it. I actually think it looks better than that stock 8" solar panel on the front! Opinions????

Personally I prefer the 8" round to the rectangular units. Can't beat the light output from them.

I like the square headlight on my big bike. It has a very retro look. And I like the body style of the '82-'83 GS1100 better than my '80. So that makes it win-win for me.

Now on my '78 GS1000 I like the original round headlight. It has a kind of Marlon Brando look with the low flat seat, and low bars.

For the 82-83, it's gotta be the big 8 inch:shock: \\/ \\/

I like the 8 inch also. Has been a Biatch finding a decent small fairing that will fit these rascals though!! 8-[ :shock: :?

Michael,

You could always do like solo suzuki as use a trimmed down 1150 fairing mounted bikini style. I have one I plan on doing that to eventually.

[MichaelHoward]

Hmm, I guess I missed that one. Let me research that. Thanks Billy.:-D

Here you go buddy.

Billy, I've got a PERFECT red and black 1150 fairing in the attic that I plan to do the same with. The key defference here is that YOU will actually do it. I will just notice the dusty thing every years when I bring down the Christmas decorations.

I've had mine for 3 or 4 years so don't feel bad. I'll be repainting hopefully in the next year so I'll make all the bodywork match and trim the fairing.

That looks sweet! I want one too for my 1100E!!!!!

The '82 I just picked up has the square light....at first I planned on gettin' rid of it. After lookin' at it awhile...I'm not sure anymore.

Rifle makes fairings for 8" headlights. A little pricey, but quality stuff from everything I've heard.
