I suppose Mr D Daniels is correct.
GKs are strange and unique.
Must be they then need strange and unique folks that would want one.
And GKs are fairly rare.
Very seldom see one GK,
ANd is very rare to ever see two of them in one place at the same time.Last edited by Redman; 11-09-2021, 10:59 PM.http://webpages.charter.net/ddvrnr/GS850_1100_Emblems.jpg

Am joking bout the GK owners also being unusual and strange.
THe picture is Mr D Daniels on left, and me on right. He sold his within a year or two. I still have mine.
So, maybe only half the GK owners are unusual and strange.http://webpages.charter.net/ddvrnr/GS850_1100_Emblems.jpg

I did enjoy my GK while I had it and it was nice to have the bags and wind protection and it was a great runner that only let me down once on my way to Steve's place (battery died). I only sold it because a GSX1100G popped up for sale locally and I hadn't scratched that itch yet. One test ride was all it took.Current Bikes:
2001 Yamaha FZ1 (bought same one back)

In early 1980 I had an GS850G with the full Vetter pkg. and loved it but decided I needed a Goldwing. But the Goldwing just wasn't for me. When I found a GK at a good price from a guy that did not get his wife approval before he bought it I jumped on it. I really loved the GK.

Oh, didn’t notice the black
engine. Yep: 83.
I noticed the larger foot pegs, and thought the color of the two tone scheme was 83, and I kinda know was lot less 84s than 83.http://webpages.charter.net/ddvrnr/GS850_1100_Emblems.jpg
