Which GS's had 8" lights?

[liloaty]

I'm desperately in need of an 8" light with the bucket and I'm just curious as to which GS's had them? If there is no list, can someone at least tell me what size the 83 GS750 had?

[Guest]

i would think most if not all gs with a round headlight have an 8"

GS1150's have 8'' headlights. Most others are 7".

[Guest]

82-83 GS1100E's had them...love those freight train headlights!!

[scottp8113]

now if they just had the horn to match....

[Guest]

The '83 750 were rectangular. '85 700 E (not ES) had the same eight inch unit as the '83 1100 E.

78-80 GS1000E has an 8" too.

Well it seems they are all near impossible to find!

EDIT: WOO found one, for 35 bucks to boot

If you ever find the chrome ring let me know. Mine has a dinger / scratch.

The assembly I bought is black, if it was chrome I'd trade you rings because I'd be painting it black :?

E-bay, I see at least 1 per month.

82 gs1100G has an 8'inch. i finally found another one to replace the one the PO shattered when he dropped the bike.

Giday Mac, I think you are right too. I have just re-measured my 83 1100G and it's definately only 7". It may be that the 1100G's came out in the US with 8" but that never happened down here. Some may be including the housing case diameter when measuring, or perhaps just using their Johnsons as the measuring tool !!! :shock:
