    Hello to all
    My name is Heiko and Iīm from North Germany.
    My age is 55, married since 1995 and biking since 1986.
    I found this forum via internet and would like to participate a bit.
    First of all: sry for my rotten English, I will try to improve.
    My GS is a G-model built in 1983.
    Exept front break cylinder (from a Bandit) a four in one (Motad) ,brake lines (Stahlflex) and air filter (K&N) she is is in original condition.
    Cyclometer says 70.000 km or 43495,983 mls.
    I wish all of you a good time with no crash or ticket.

    Rgds

          Welcome Heiko!

          Like has been said, your English is fine.

          You're same age as me...but I have only been riding since I was 44...not a very long time.

          Thanks for your intro and FULL signature.

            Welcome to the forum. Tell us some interesting stories about riding on the Autobahn. We have to search for long stretches of desolation to ride our bikes at their max speed without getting cited by the police.

              Welcome, I have an 1100G but purists swear the 1000G is smoother and a great bike.

              I find working on my motorcycle mildly therapeutic when I'm not cursing.

                "83" GS1000 G, I don't know about Germany, but around here there were no GS 1000's in "83". Everything had gone to 1100's by then, I think. Welcome, & the way things are around here, I wouldn't worry about the english.

                  Hi RP,
                  You are right , seems that I have had sticky fingers during my registration.

                    Welcome aboard. Your English is a lot better than my German, but I believe the saying is, "Don't judge a book by it's cover."
