Thanks "T", that was a very nice "bring back the memories" thing for me. That "78" blue GS1000 was my 2nd "real" bike, Like his, I also had the "E" seat, lower bars, dual brakes up front (spoked wheels were already drilled and tapped for the other rotor). His had a GS1100 alum. swingarm, they weren't out when I had my "78" but when I had my "79" GS1000S, it did get a GS1100 swingarm and eventually a GS1100 eng.... Thank god for still having many of those memories.

When I die, just cremate me and put me in my GS tank. That way I can go through these carbs, one more time!https://www.thegsresources.com/_forum/core/images/smilies/cool.png
