    Back on the road again

    After about 6 weeks of renovations, my 82 GS1100EZ is back on the road after a multi year hiatus. Complete brake overhaul, carb rebuild, electrical cleanup, etc. Still runs a bit rough at very small throttle openings and a stall here and there, but other than that, runs as good as it ever did, and is still quick enough to scare the bejeezus out of me..!!

    Now to chase down that roughness; adjust valves, sync carbs (never been done since new), plug wires/plugs. Wish I'd known about the O-ring kits when I overhauled the carbs, but hope to put that off until next winter.

    But sure great to have it back on the road again, thanks to the info from this excellent forum.
