Is 82 gs1100GL worth $200 to buy, then part out??..or repair??

For 200 bucks that's a pretty cheap entry fee. I'd buy it. If it's in rough but not perfect shape fix it up. If not then you'd be almost guaranteed to make at least your money back parting it out. And it's right down the street. So go look at it!

Good luck

Something like a 150 miles from me. I might be interested in it as a parts bike if you aren't.

Exhaust, tank, gauges and seat are the big $$ items on most bikes..
If those are trashed recovering your investment will be difficult but not impossible.

If you plan to fix it expect to spend at least $850 in parts to get it safely on the road..(I usually say $1000 but you don't need a chain on a G )
Little things like
Battery
tires
cables
carb kits
oil change
fork seals
bearings
and so on..
