I just took mine out springbrook and back past Hinze this morning.
Got a bit wet.
Is it just seat and gauges you are chasing?
I have parts, but probably don't want to get rid of anything you need.

Never had another one to compare.

I guess Pete had better come along if we have a few GS bikes together

Bloody oath Tim! Get the Brissie bunch out as well...

Hopefully my oil change tomorrow will stop the excess consumption... my trip down to Arundel for an exam on Thursday used 200mL of oil!

[Guest]

Good stuff mate! Get some old GS lovin' happenin'!

I see a GSX1100 regularly around here but only on the move never stationary to have a chat.

I've also seen a couple of GS1000's but again no chance to chat...

I do ride with all these funny looking silver GSX things pretty regularly though so I can probably round some of them up

I saw John and his sidecar down on the coast a couple of weeks back.

 

[Guest]

That would've been Friday 7th March on his way to Nambucca Heads for the Katana Australia State of Origin weekend...

got these of a GR650 have a guy rewiring them on the weekend to suit the gs1000 so now just have to find a seat and keep cleaning lol

 

[Brodie]

You can have the seat off my 750. It is worn out as hell though. Let me know if you want anything else off it. I have a few boxes of parts.

You can have the speedo cable from my GS if I can find all of it, and the seat if it is any good. If you aren't busy tomorrow morning I might swing round and drop them off.
