Newbie Parts Question

[Howler]

Hi I'm sorry to ask this question but I can't seem to find the info and the search spectrum is very vague.
I have a 1982 GS450L (and thanks to those who helped me find that out) and I'm trying to locate some side covers, muffler and other misc. parts to bring this bike back to a good looking condition. Can anyone tell me what model and year range (if at all) can I look at for parts? ei Will side covers from an 81 gs400 fit the 82 450L?

Thanks in advance.
Howler

Welcome !!!!!!!!!

The only side panels that fit are '80-'82 450 L models.

Keep a sharp eye on ebay and be patient. They'll come up eventually.

Welcome, look up Woody's in Perth. It is a motorcycle grave yard.

The yard has a lot of old school parts for everything you can think of but he is old school meaning he will look at the part and give you the price and that's it. You also have to call him as he does not use the website often. However, the staff is very friendly.
