$2,500 - That seat is horrible
I just got it back from the shop. It runs great. All the lights work. It does have some cosmetic issues:
The kick starter snapped off pretty much a week after I got it. It has an electric starter that works great.
There is a dent in the gas tank.
None of the electronics work other than the starter and the lights.
The rectifier has snapped off but is being suspended by metal wire.
The biggest problem is that neither the tachometer nor the speedometer gauge work. The bike tops out at about 60 mph anyway so you're probably not going be going much faster than 50 mph.[URL="http://www.thegsresources.com/_forum/showthread.php?237080-GS450-Rebuild&highlight=gs450+total+rebuild"]1980/1981 GS450[/URL] - [URL="https://www.thegsresources.com/_forum/showthread.php?252902-My-GS450-gt-GS500-Cylinder-and-Piston-Swap"]GS500 Cylinder + Piston Swap [/URL]- "De-L'ed", custom seat, CB350 bits, 18" rear, etc.

How to deal with a CL scammer...
Found this on Yahoo today. Painfully slow scrolling, but it is funny.

Great scam backfire. Too bad he couldn't post it up to a REAL site to make it easier to read. So many popups and crap, I'll need to run a few scans on my machine before the day is out, lol...'83 GS 1100T

To me, it hurts to see a SOHC 750 butchered that way. So few left in good condition that seeing another one hacked makes my hair hurt.1984 GS1150ES (finally arrived, more to come...)
1989 Dodge Dakota (the perfect Oregon work truck)
1980 Sears "Free Spirit" bicycle (original patina and everything!)
1978 "The Executive" RV (vintage like its owner)
How can I be in two places at once when i'm not anywhere at all?
Can I double park in a parallel universe?

I recently was a "first responder" of sorts in an accident involving a bobber and a small car. Thankfully low-speed, on a intersection, with traffic lights. Haven't seen the accident itself, just the aftermath, but obviously the car was turning left, crossing bobbers track - which just got the green light, apparently. Broke guys' leg.
Pondering the whole thing afterwards, I was wondering whether the guy could've walked off with a few bruises only with a different seating position.#1: 1979 GS 550 EC "Red" – Very first Bike / [URL="https://www.thegsresources.com/_forum/node/85353"]Overhaul thread[/URL] New here? ☛ Read the [URL="https://www.thegsresources.com/_forum/node/46923"]Top 10 Newbie mistakes thread[/URL]
