    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.

Hello GS people! I bought my first GS in 1982 (1100E) It was shipped to me from Seattle to Kodiak Alaska still in the original crate. I rode it from AK to TX then to my duty station in Alameda CA. I always regretted selling it. I've owned modern missile bikes (ZX12R) but the GS was always my favorite. I just bought a 1980 1100E project bike as a father son deal so the fun begins! My name is Casey, I'm retired military and current overseas contractor. See you in the forums!
 
Welcome to the site, Casey.
Fixing up an old bike is a great way to spend time with the kids.
Let's see a pic of your starting point.
 
Welcome Casey,

Sounds like a great family project. Thanks for your service. I'm retired Air Force since 2011.

Post pics when you get a chance.

Welcome to GSR.

Tell us more of your adventures and project with your son.

Just how much of a project is this?
 
Welcome! Can't wait to see pics of the restoration!!! Such a cool thing for father/son time.
 
I got two bikes, 80 1100E and an 83 1100GL Also 15 boxes of spare GS parts all for 1300.00! I plan on suspension upgrades ( hayabusa, bandit,gsxr...) and mild engine mods, mikuni RS carbs, mildport and polish, 1150 cams w/slotted cam sprockets. I think I'll keep the Kerker. I'll post a pic as soon as I figure out how. Thanks for the warm welcome!
