Maybe the most "cobbled-together" bike I have ever purchased!

Just think'in if that's a "78" gas tank with the indention down the side, Folks are asking a lot for those things.

Yeah, the tank is a '78 indented tank. It has never been lined and looks new inside. That's one of the reasons I bought it!

Got the airbox today.


Now if I only had the air filter housing!

[1978GS750E]

Got a little surprise when I took the headlight out of the housing!


I guess it could have been worse. At least they had moved on!

Anyone know if these are the headlight mounts for a 1150? This thing has a bigger than stock headlight, but I have no idea what bike it is from.


It will probably be on Fleabay once I figure out what I have!

Starting to look a little better with a stock front fender and a chrome speedo cover!

There is a chance I have some turn signals (or at least the plastic lenses) and a center stand for you… I may also have some headlight brackets.
I think the 1100 was the one that used the 9” light.
