    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.

Purchased a GS1000G of unknown year, in very rough condition as a parts bike for my '80 GS1000G. But the numbers dont match. The vin #'s on the neck [both stamped and on the sticker] are GS100G-702207. so far so good. The numbers on the case by the oil fill read, U701-103457 this dosnt appear "right" as my case #'s start with GS100G- like the neck vin. finaly, the cylinder block's cast in #'s say 1074. unfortunatly all the bodywork was missing except for the standard G model tailpiece. Forks are GL model. No hinges for seat, two brackets @ front instead. Thats about it. Thanks for any help.

That's an 1100 block.

yep! and it sounds like it may be a 82 or 83 1100G. does it have a key operated latch at the rear of where the seat goes? or have a hole in the top of the rear tail piece?
Got a digi camera?
 
Can't say much about the numbers, but the fact that you have no hinges, only two brackets at the front hint that it is an L model.

Getting closer, still need some help!

Getting closer, still need some help!

The frame cross brace @ the back of the seat area has two threaded holes where a seat latch may have been. It is also angular as opposed to the smooth arch w/o holes on my '80. I believe the rolling chassis to be an early '80s GS1000GK. How do I find out if the entire motor is an 1100 or if an 1100 top-end was swapped onto a set of 1000 cases? Also does anyone have bore/stroke specs for both the 8 valve 1100s & 1000s?
