Changing up that rear mount shouldn't be too much of a hassle. I'm mainly concerned about the fitment over the frame.

Tank options
I'd like some input on tanks. I have a 79' gs1000e. Does anyone know if the 82' 1100 tank will fit the frame rails? I can see the mount tabs are different since the 82' tank has two tabs in the rear and the original 79' tank has only one.

Sorry that's what I meant... the petcock will hit the VM's. (The CV's are flatter on top so there is clearance).

Here's pics of the 1100 tank I bought from you fitted on 78 GS1000 unaltered carb tops etc. Was close but had no fitment issues.
