    Looks great!
    The bodywork and exhaust don't look like they need any work.

      Do you have the full set of that Samsonite? I see that you have the Samsonite brackes on the right rear footpeg that keeps the peg from folding. I would like to buy those. I like Samsonite. I had a brown 1981 like that one. Heck, if its a maroonish '80 I still have one.

        Looks nice!
        I think the Windjammers make great front wheel chocks, too!!

        Have a great holiday and have fun with your new GS!

          I don't have the third bag but I was planning on keeping them I've always wanted a bagger.

          Yeah the exhaust just has calcium deposits the seat is immaculate for original. Working on the valves right now and looking for some carbs.

          The engine moves freely after I get her started its new tires and bearings.

                I also had one like this, and it ended up being one of my favorite bikes, I sold it and have been kicking myself in the rear ever since.

                Yours looks like its starting out better than mine did, I really don't see much wrong with it.. doesnt look like a leaker, and very little if any rust.. great foundation.

                    The 850G was one of the nicest looking bikes made in my opinion. That one looks like it has alot of potential to be a really great bike. I'm sure you'll have alot of enjoyment with it when you're through.
