    What type of steel is the frame made of??????

    The dude welding my new seat pan hinge on wants to know what type of steel the frame is made out of. Specifically he wants to know if it is T-1 or not?

    I have a 1982 GS 650 GLZ if that helps......

    Tool steel for a cheap mass produced motorcycle frame?

    Life is too short to ride an L.

        I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.
