    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.

1982 GS1100E for sale in my area.

Here's the listing:
This is a 1982 Suzuki GS1100E, all original. Bike was running fine when it was stored about one year ago. I have installed a new battery and started it recently. It runs but the carbs need attention. Despite having additive in the fuel, it has gone bad after such a long period of not being used. A little work would produce a great example of an old school muscle bike.

The asking price is $1500. Hopefully it's still available.:pray:
 
Wow that's nice ,not a big project tho , fix carbs and ride , I had that same bike back in 87 , nice bike , Brian
 
Very nice bikes. A bit heavy, but lots of torque and very fast.
 
Jump on that GS

Jump on that GS

That '82 is gorgeous! Three months ago I bought one for $1500, running and looking great, although the headers have black paint covering up rusty chrome.

I think you should jump on that GS. Preserve that exhaust, even if you replace it. I'm sure it's very valuable. The tank and rest of the bodywork look pristine. To me, the project is maintaining their current condition. Do you know if it's been repainted?

Mine was repainted red with black engine and headers, looks sort of like the one in the background of one of your photos. Are those pics of the bike being offered for $1500? It looks like a museum piece!
