Let's See Those L's!!! [GS***L Picture Thread]

[Darren]

very nice Bike wow

[kerrfunk]

Darren and muyfuerte, you have my dream bike! The 1981 Suzuki GS 1000 GL is the bike Jesus would ride.

In Suzuki code, 1981 = X, which is the first letter in the word Christ (in Greek... hence X-mas)
1000 = 10 x 10 x 10, a trinity of a perfect number.
GS = "God's Son"
GL = "God's Love"

[muyfuerte]

I will never sell it now... that's deep... I am trying to change the speedometer on this bike... It went awry and I bought a "new" one... from a used one... I hope I can replace it...

/\Tidy. Do you run that bike with no air filtration at all? Curious why you switched L & R forks to have the calipers out front?

[Thatoneguy]

I have some custom velocity stacks for it now, and have also corrected the fork issue lol.

[Steve]

Did that bike start life as an "L"? If so, did you replace the triple clamps when you changed the fork tubes?

Getting rid of the leading-axle forks without also changing the triples will slow down the steering, making it harder to handle.

[Thatoneguy]

Yeah I replaced the triples, everything is from a katana on the front end.
