Hello!
I'm not really a new member but I seem to have lost all of my old account stuff other than my user name.
Anyway, I come and go from the forum every 2 or 3 years. About so often as I dig into major restoration of my GS. I'm back again.
My only GS is my 1982 GS1100GK that has been stripped down to the point of replicating a "G". This winter I've finally lined the tank (redcoat), am polishing the side crankcase covers, cleaning/repairing the original exhaust, testing alternative float needles and seats (viton tipped), and doing a few other minor repairs.
My other current rides are a 2008 Triumph Sprint ST, a 2017 Yamaha YZ250X, and a 2001 XR400R that I'm trying to make dual sport legal.
I'm more of an offroader, but I'm probably good for 8 to 10 thousand miles a year combined on my street stuff.
I'm a motorcycle technician by trade, but currently own a small parts/accessories shop and only do minor service work such as tires and exhaust/jetting/carb clean stuff on newer singles.
Hmmmm... I'd feel bad not sharing some helpful info today. Oh! Ancor is selling tinned marine wire on amazon. It makes great wire for your upgrades. There, I've done my part.
Thanks for having me, and I hope to be around a little more often than I have the past 4 or 5 years!
