    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Nice score. You basically picked up a set of Fox Shocks for $600 and they threw in an S for free.

Marc gets another one.

I gather that as shown in the pic is how it came (no seat, no exhaust etcetera). CAn see is still snow on tires from wheeling it in.
 
Hi Dave,
Came with maybe what is a GS750 seat, a few various parts and lot of missing parts.In the box I found a Bassani baffle and 2 bassani spigots.The gauge worth more than the whole bike.

Want to swap tanks? I've got a '78 with a '79 tank! LOL:cool:

This one need work, not really good for a swap.I will know more when I find a key to open the cap.The bike came with no key and the ignition switch, gas cap and seat lock have all different number.
 
One is cracked, there is surely a tutorial here on how to change the glass.We GS'er are cheap.


I've taken them out before to tighten....gentle pry back the metal holding the plastic of the mirror...go around the whole mirror
 
Awesome! Didnt think yellow would fit it that well but it looks great!

I wish I had that style choke I just pull from the rack
 
What's not to like about an air cooled inline four liter bike (besides the upper side cover mount :p)? Keep the pics coming.
