    1982 GS1100E handle bars and seat strap?

    I recently purchased a nice 1982 GS1100E and it came with some aftermarket sport handlebar that I don't like at all. The owner gave me the OEM handlebar but the knurls for clamps are just about worn smooth and the bars are in pretty bad shape. I was hoping someone knows an aftermarket handlebar that would be near identical to the original bars. I wanted to make it look as close to original as possible. I also replaced the seat cover with a Saddleman seat cover and it looks great but I didn't realize it doesn't come with the seat strap. Anyone know where I could get one? I don't mind not having one but the strap hold downs are part of the seat mounting and it looks a little odd without the strap there. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

    Welcome to the site, James.
    Start a thread in the "parts wanted" section.
    I would be surprised if somebody didn't have the parts you need.
