Hello from Norway.

Hi. My name is Ole-Johan. I am from Norway. I purchased my GS1000G when I was 17yr. Has not taken care of it myself all time, but it ended up in my garage as he who took care of it called me and asked me to take it back. Hi had not had time for it and used it for a while. The bike has not been restored. There is a lot of minor wear that can be shown here and there. However it's maybe one of the most compleate original. I also happens to have the leather suit that came with and that I did not bye when I bought it new. The hisotry on the leather suit is that the dealer retired and I was offered the leather suit 41yr later. It did not fit then, and it does not fit now, but it makes the history and bike compleate. It fits my daughter perfect, and she is a rider. I made a little tribute to my GS1000G.

N I C E !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The 1000G is one of the all-time best GS's (my opinion). At 70k km, yours is still a baby! It should run another 70k, as long as you take care of it!

Welcome Ole, Love that video. My 1st "new" bike was an "80" 1000G. Probably most comfortable bike I ever had. Your picture says GS1000G 1982, in "82" ours went to 1100cc. I'm jealous of yall's paint, all we ever got was a solid color with gold pin stripes, yours looks waaay better. In video, how'd you get the tach to jump while no hand on the throttle, or I couldn't see a hand? Another thing, how big are you, a couple of those pictures, that bike looks way small, or you look way big, kind'f looks like a duck on a june bug. Congrats on that old bike, great video, glad you found us.

The Black, red and orange was the last production of the GS1000G. It was replaced by the GS1100G in July 1982. Mine was licensed by the dealer in 1982-09-18.

I think I remember, yrs. ago, seeing a silver and blue in that same scheme. To me, Yall's looked sporty, ours looked kind'f blaaah... sure not sporty.

Very nice survivor condition.
That mileage is nothing at all, but one thing - it's around then (70,000Km or 40,000miles) the bottom left engine base gasket starts to show signs of leakage. If you're lucky it will happen much later.

Jävla snygg GS!
