    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.

I have a 1981 GS 1100L and I would like to know if the exhaust pipes from a 1980 GS 1000L would fit and what other parts are interchangeable . Thanks

I didn't know they made GSs in 1950 ;)
Welcome to the site!
If they are both shafties it should fit.
 
i assume the 1000 is an 8valve and the 1100 is a 16v engine
if so, the pipes are most likely not interchangable
 
As Chef said if they are both shafts and two valve motors they should fit. As Psyguy mentioned I do not think the 4 valve pipes will fit on a two valve motor. Suzuki made some chain drive 4 valve L's, maybe the 80 & 81 model years. There are a lot of parts that are interchangeable between the 850, 1000, & 1100 L's with the two valve motors. 82 & 83 model years have the most parts that interchange between L's. The 81 model year has less in common but still a fair amount of parts are the same. The 1000/1100 pipe is marked the same, the 850 pipe has different markings. I do not think the 850 pipe fits the 1000/1100 but maybe someone else knows for sure.
 
No 1100L shaftie in 80 OR 81 to my knowlege. The first 1100 shaftie was 82 AFIK. You sure thats not a chain drive 16v bike? Or maybe 1000GL?? Both of those existed in 80-81 i do believe..
