    Pod Filters?

    Thank you, sir.

    Pod Filters?

    Hey guys! What's the general consensus regarding pod filters instead of the factory air box? I know on the 1979-1983 Honda CB750-1100 bikes it is not recommended because the Honda's particular carb. design requires there be somewhat of a restriction in airflow for the carbs to work properly. I...

    High Miles?

    Hey guys! What would be considered high miles for the GS1100E machines? I realize how a bike has been maintained has a lot to do with longevity, but is there a number--20;000, 30,000, 100,000 miles-- that would be considered high mileage? Thanks!

    1981 GS1100E Parts Bike

    27,000 miles. Unfortunately, this bike had been stored in an aluminum container and aluminum corrosion and rust are now evident. The bike does not run, however the engine spins over freely with a wrench on the crank with no abnormal mechanical noises. It is missing the headlight assembly, air...

    1980 or 1982 GS1100E--Which Would You Choose?

    I currently have the black '81 up for sale here locally for $500 as a parts bike. Since the '82s are pretty rough and not factory original, what do you guys think about painting the engine black? I will be going with the factory champagne color, or as close to it as possible. I've always liked a...

    1980 or 1982 GS1100E--Which Would You Choose?

    I'm actually with you on the colors. I prefer bright, loud colors myself. Black, white, gray, silver I'm not a huge fan of. Really, the only reason I like the black bike better than the silv...ahem..Champagne...bike, is the red accents and gold GS1100 emblems. Looks good against the black. :)

    1980 or 1982 GS1100E--Which Would You Choose?

    Side note, here's a Honda VF1000F Interceptor I'm working on for a gentleman. Every cam lobe and follower are junk. I found a cherry set on ebay from a V65 Sabre and am installing them. I'm attempting to do the front cams while the engine is in the bike. Unfortunately, I'll have to remove the...

    1980 or 1982 GS1100E--Which Would You Choose?

    It's possible to get a title but it is a hassle. My thinking right now is to keep both '82s and sell the '81 as a parts bike. This morning when I got back from my morning walk, I started tinkering on the '81. Removed the rear turn signal to keep for the '82 and while I was in there, I noticed...

    More goodies came with the deal. New seat cover for the '82, tank from and miscellaneous parts presumably from the parts bike and in the blue tub are the carbs for the parts bike. Disassembled but organized.

    1980 or 1982 GS1100E--Which Would You Choose?

    A little more info., here. The black bike was supposedly a 1980 with title. Well, hold on, not so fast. It's actually a 1981 and the title I have that was supposedly for it is in reality the title for the parts bike, which is an '82. Here's a pic of it. Those are Fox Shox on the rear...

    That's funny, I really like the black with the red accents and have never been a fan of silver. :)

    I've read about that. The earlier bikes never had that issue?
