    Chrome Chain Guard

    I'm trying to find a chrome chain guard for my 79 gs1000. I've seen a few on ebay for other gs models but not for the 1000. Does anyone know what other gs chain guards would be interchangeable?

    There's an 83 gs550 one on there now but not sure if it would work by the pics

    Thanks

    I don't think there are any oem that fit I was looking myself I think other than an after market one like cir -circle then you might have to modify one from the later GS's with the ally box swing arms, 750/1100 type ones.
    Maybe one from an L but I am doubtful.

    Don't say can't, as anything is possible with time and effort, but, if you don't have time things get tougher and require more effort.

      If you do the 1100 aluminum swingarm conversion to your 1000 you can use the chrome chainguard from the 1100.
      Then you can polish the swingarm and really get some bling.
      Correct me,anyone if I am wrong.

        Sticking with the factory swing arm for now. Not going for the total "bling look" just thought a little chrome sets off a classic bike nicely. I would just get a stocker dipped but chrome has gotten a little to pricey around here..
