    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 am thinking about my seat and looked at Corbins site. They do not make one for my GS1000 but do make one for the GS1100. Has anybody tried to make one fit on a GS1000 or is this just not possible.
Thanks
 
It's may be possible, but the GS1000 seat has a metal base, hinges on the left side, and the latch is on the right.
The 82/83 1100 seat has no hinges, has a plastic base , and the latch is in the rear.

If you contact them you may be able to send them a seat pan and have it done. A friend of mine has all his bikes done by them and he goes straight to Corbin when he gets a new bike. Of course they are only a couple hours from here.
 
Call the seat company. They might have done them in the past. Mike Corbin is a packrat. He never throws anything away

Speaking from my knowledge of my 550L seat, the latches under the seat are convertible, at least you can remove some parts for one and install other parts for the other and convert the frame from side latch to rear latch. Depending on which you preferred, it might be possible to make the 1100 seat work on your 1000 by removing the side hinges and adding the rear latch stay.

No clue about any dimensional variations though.
