Rosebank Rd, Auckland New Zealand ???????????
Heres one for anyone in Auckland NZ.
One morning last week (on one of those awful rainy days) I saw a really nice GS1000S - red one. Went around the roundabout on Rosebank Rd ahead of me....
Anyone on this forum ????? If you are ever in the area again drop in to 580C - Land Rover Parts building and say hi.

Any members riding in the Tri-Cities of TN?
In the past 3 weeks I've seen at least a hald dozen nice GS Middle Weights. The most recent being what appeared to be a GS550(?) Katana on Fort Henry Drive near the I-81 overpass. Man, we'd have enough for a decent local rally if these riders would speak up.
WillieCommon sense has become so uncommon that I consider it a super power.
Present Stable includes:
'74 GT750 Resto-mod I've owned since '79
'83 GS1100E (The best E I've ever enjoyed, Joe Nardy's former bike)
'82 GS1100G Resto project

Saw a younger guy today (Sunday 8/9) in Westville Indiana on a blue GS 750 with a 4-1 pipe. Nice looking bike. I even went up to the apartment he went into and asked about it.

The other day while riding not too far from my home, I saw a familiar shape parked out by a barn. Turned around and pulled in and saw this:
Anybody know what it is?
(sorry about the close picture, I was on my bike and there wasn't much room so I was pretty close)
I went back today with a note, saying I stopped to admire his GS, leave my email address, and direct him to this site.
As I was taking the picture, a guy comes out of the house: "Can I help you? Are you the guy who left a note the other day?"
I said, "Someone left a note? No, it wasn't me. I was just about to leave one, though. What note did someone leave?"
Someone else had ridden by and left a note asking if he wanted to sell his bike
We talked for a bit, and I told him about all the wonderful GS help there is here. Maybe we'll see him around.
Too bad about his flat tire."I have come to believe that all life is precious." -- Eastman, TWD6.4

The guy told me it was an 82 650. Bought it sometime in 2008. I don't know when or how the tire went flat, but hopefully he'll "bring" it here to the GSR and it'll get the love it needs."I have come to believe that all life is precious." -- Eastman, TWD6.4

A couple weeks ago wife and I were down by the beach, eating at Butch's Beach Burrito, here in Grand Haven. Saw a GK go by towards the beach/pier. Then later, as we were about to pull out of parking lot (in our van), the same GK goes by towards downtown, so I followed it/him. He pulled into a parking lot, so I pulled in also.
We chatted for a while, and agreed that yah is probably the one I saw at Muskegon Bike Time a few weeks ago and the year prior also.
I think he said his name was Greg (?), and is from Sparta (about 50 miles from here).
Then he says "Hey, you the guy that left a GSResource card on my bike at Muskegon Bike Time a year ago?"
(Yep)
And he goes on to say that he had checked out the forumn and had got some usefull info.
(I didnt gather if he registered or not.)
(I didnt gather if he still had the card.)
We could have chatted more, but my wife was getting annoyed waiting, and he was there with his son(?) to go for walk and see some things.

There is a black w red stripe 78 GS1000 leaning on a tree in some guys front yard in downtown Kennewick.
It's been there for the last 2 years that I know of.. Not to bad looking considering it's situation.

Some crazy kid named Chris showed up at my place on a black/gold '82 GS850G last night.
Nice, clean looking bike, with all manners of ammo boxes and aluminum panniers festooned fore and aft.
Said he was riding around the world, or something nutty like that...
I hope he makes it.

Not a GS, but clearly trying to look like one. I saw some guy riding one of these new Suzuki TS250s around town in Seattle yesterday afternoon.
It's actually the first time I've seen one of those actually on the road. I'd never want one, too small for highway, but I can see tooling around in it in the city.
