    '82 color scheme

    I know that in '82 the 1100e was offered in champagne (with silver exhaust/engine) and red.

    Question: did the red 1982 1100e come from the factory with black engine and exhaust?
    1982 GS1100E V&H "SS" exhaust, APE pods, 1150 oil cooler, 140 speedo, 99.3 rear wheel HP, black engine, '83 red

    2016 XL883L sigpic Two-tone blue and white. Almost 42 hp! Status: destroyed, now owned by the insurance company. The hole in my memory starts an hour before the accident and ends 24 hours after.

      Interesting

      Got a picture of yours?

      Every pic of one I see that's red has the engine black.

        If I am not mistaken none of them came with the black motor before 1983 .

          You cant call the silver "Champagne" and not call the red "Candy Fancy Maroon"

          83 1100EDs were Blue & Red with black engines & exhaust. 82 1100EZs were the above mentioned colors with un painted engines and chrome exhaust.
