new project bike and new to the gs site

[Guest]

Just picked up a 1980 gs550l, had one when I first started riding back in the 80's, had so many others but I like the old classics, couldn't pass up the bike it was cheap.had the carbs redone, still needs some adjusting but runs nice.changed the bars, couldn't ride with the Buckhorn's.all stock otherwise.except for a homemade battery cover. Took th kg slider and backrest off, that was on it. Was gonna sell it, but reminded me of my first street bike, wish I could find a yoshimura pipe for it, that's what my 1st one had.

Congratulations on the bike! Hopefully you get it sorted out just the way you want it! You've definitely found the best forum for your needs!

Some folks will be along soon for your mega-welcome, you'll find all sorts of good info there.

Have fun!

Welcome! I just joined recently and have gotten solid, helpful information from this site! My refurbishment to a 78 GS550 is complete enough that I'm riding every day!

Welcome to GSRecources. I love you.

That is either the warmest, or scariest GSR greeting I have read to date

Very very nice 550 you have there.

And yes.
Welcome to the forum!!

Welcome Aboard!!! The GS550 is a great machine! Small, peppy and good on gas. Enjoy your bike and good luck with your endeavors. I love the L's. Your bike looks pretty sharp!
Good luck!
