Just signed up! Picked up a 1980 GS1000 GL with some silly handlebars, spiky mirrors, and a lot of polishing that needs to be done... Cheers!

I find it very interesting that there are over 120 replies to this thread, in spite of the request in the very first post:

(EDIT: Please DO NOT "Reply" to this thread to introduce yourself. This is an informational post only. Feel free to start a new thread in the "GS Owners" section of the forum to introduce yourself. Thanks!)

I have not taken the time to count the intros, but I'll bet it's at least half of them.

You reply to a thread musing over the replies to a thread?
Slow say Steve?

Yes, it's a slow Day, too.

Hey everyone!! New to here new to the GS world new to here. Little about my bike its a 1981 gs1000 that i bought for 300 bucks. after some debating i decided to go the way of the cafe/brat style on it rather than restoring it to original. The bike that i thought was going to be a nice project has quickly turned into a wiring nightmare.

Hi all! I just bought a 1981 gs450t! It's my first bike, and I just started learning to ride a couple of months ago.

The bike needs a little bit of work, but I am excited to get it on the road. Brakes seem to need the most lovin' and then some regular maintenance.

Hey all. New member here. Been riding bikes for a while and have decided to do a project bike instead of a car. Got a 1984 GS750E Sport, basically just a frame, engine and suspension and am in the middle of installing a 2000 GSXR600 front and rear to it. So I am sure I will have lots of questions for all. I currently ride a 2013 CBR250R and just bought my son a 1989 FZR600. Past bikes include a 1996 ZX6, 1981 RD350LC, and 1979 XS400, so as you can see I am new to Suzuki, but have liked the bikes since watching Kevin Schwantz race the 500cc 2 strokes.

I look forward to posting pics for you all to enjoy and possibly a detailed write up if I can find the time... cheers guys

"Awesome", maybe, but, like many, many others, can not read.

It's been that way since thread inception. I've asked/mentioned that thread should be "locked" but it hasn't happened.

Hi all! My name is Cole and I am new to the forum and Suzuki. Not new to riding though. I recently purchased a 1979 GS1000 that has been neglected for a long time. I plan on restoring it. Looking forwards to interacting with you all.

If nothing else, this is an interesting study in human behaviour and to see who reads.
