Purchased a GS1000G of unknown year, in very rough condition as a parts bike for my '80 GS1000G. But the numbers dont match. The vin #'s on the neck [both stamped and on the sticker] are GS100G-702207. so far so good. The numbers on the case by the oil fill read, U701-103457 this dosnt appear "right" as my case #'s start with GS100G- like the neck vin. finaly, the cylinder block's cast in #'s say 1074. unfortunatly all the bodywork was missing except for the standard G model tailpiece. Forks are GL model. No hinges for seat, two brackets @ front instead. Thats about it. Thanks for any help.

That's an 1100 block. -
Can't say much about the numbers, but the fact that you have no hinges, only two brackets at the front hint that it is an L model.

Getting closer, still need some help!
The frame cross brace @ the back of the seat area has two threaded holes where a seat latch may have been. It is also angular as opposed to the smooth arch w/o holes on my '80. I believe the rolling chassis to be an early '80s GS1000GK. How do I find out if the entire motor is an 1100 or if an 1100 top-end was swapped onto a set of 1000 cases? Also does anyone have bore/stroke specs for both the 8 valve 1100s & 1000s?Comment
