1983 Suzuki GS1100ED --- "Big Boy"

Haha nah logistics as in getting everything organised and ready... putting all your ducks in a row... etc.

Oh, gotcha! I was kinda shocked for a while lol.

Looking forward to you getting it fired up! And don't forget about the 1100. I think I'll have my carbs back on Monday. I don't mind the wait since I gotta package up these patches and stuff. Got a long weekend ahead of me!

Nah not quite... it's just a matter of logistics. Saturday's are the only weekend days I get a chance for that sort of thing and that will be the first one when I actually will have time to kick it over after getting the exhaust made up... can't wait!

Logistics? Like packages? They don't drop it off at your doorstep?

Yeah you got that right

One week today... wish I didn't have to wait...

I must have missed it but what's up with the wait?

Carbs I think...right Pete? Did you send them out to be redone??

Yeah you got that right

I rode it last week . But yeah, still some bugs to work out.

I am also waiting for you to start that 450 up. Must hear exhaust!

Me too! I keep looking at it...

I know how you feel FC... impatiently waiting for 13th August when I'll get to fire the 450 up again...

You'll be riding that thing a lot sooner than I will the 450!

I missed a few interesting eBay auctions. But I decided that they weren't really needed right now. It rides fine as is.

So I still have electrical problems. None of my lights works except the headlight. I hope that this will fix it.

And if that check panel control unit doesn't fix it, I will have to chase wires.

Man this past week has been so boring. Waiting game sucks! I wanna play a different game, dammit!

Yup, the bike looks good enough right now. I'm hoping to get the mechanics and electrics all good then ride all summer and possibly through the fall/winter as well. It depends if it snows or not.

I was planning on a set of red bodywork, which I already have and another set in blue. I can do that with my school's autobody shop! And I have chance to get another set of body work.

But right now, we wait. I need more money and waiting for my carbs.

+1

Agreed...Make it mechanically sound and ride the heck out of it...

Making it look nice-nice is a winter project.

That's why I'm riding the He!! out of mine as well. It needs lotsa cosmetics, but getting the mechanical bugs worked out while I save a couple bucks to hopefully fix the truck for winter. We'll see what happens. I plan to ride till the thermal underwear no longer keeps me warm

I was gonna say the same thing about the tank! Stole my comment Jeeprusty! :P

It will be blue later. I still plan on getting two sets of bodywork .

Get a blue tank as well.
Get all available colours and fool the cops by swapping at random.
