    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.

It's been a few years since I checked in here but I'm planning on riding my GS next spring so started my winter project. I am the original owner of this 1980 GS 1100LT and I've got 3,713 original miles on it. I haven't licensed it in 10 years but did start it on occasion and it was running when I started this project. I'm working on painting the tank and side covers now and then will paint the frame later. All components of my bike are in good condition so I'll just be painting, buffing, and shining chrome and aluminum. The first photos was taken right before I started the project.

That's an awesome bike. I really like the seat. Is that a 16 valve motor? Keep us posted with more pics.

It is a 16 valve DOHC...only available in 1980 for the L model

The seat frame is stock but I did have it recovered about 20 years ago
 
Good that you are getting it back on the road.

An original owner, wow.

Havent licened it in ten years. Looks like a new lift. Which brand is that?
