I might just be the first member from Malta. That's the little island just south of Italy. Joined in March; needed a little help with choke on my 1981 GS450 which I bought from the UK in November 2014. Think this site is amazing; so many people willing to help so quickly! Thanks to everyone who contributes.

Nice 450, what's up with the choke? -
That situation has apparently been resolved, as shown in his other thread.Originally posted by tkent02 View Post

Hey ssco! I'm not from the USA but my grandparents were born in Malta! That's a great looking bike.Comment

Clean good looking bike.
I see you have Hagon shocks, because I just ordered a pair for my 1100G.
No long journeys possible on that island, but that bike would be easy to handle on ferry crossings to a lot of other places.

Thanks!
Many thanks for your comment; nothing wrong with the choke just that I just didn't think that you had to pull it out to activate it. All the photos I saw on the web had a lever arrangement.Originally posted by tkent02 View Post1981 GS450Comment

Thanks! I bought the bike with the Hagons on it. They seem to do a reasonable job seeing the state of some our roads over here!1981 GS450Comment

Many thanks for your comment! Interesting to hear that your grandparents are Maltese. I've heard that there are more people of Maltese origin living outside Malta than there are here.1981 GS450Comment

The bike was originally in the USA and then spent some years in the UK before I bought it (with the chrome fender). I didn't realise that the original fender was not chrome. Thanks for your comment about the bike!1981 GS450Comment
