My project came with no keys, I found someone selling the lot of ignition, gas cap and seat lock with keys online. This lot is off a 1979 GS, will it work on my 1981? It looks to me to be the same. Thanks for any help in advance.

OK, we have a small clue that the '81 is an 1100, and they only had an 1100E that year, but some people (DMV included) will mistakenly call early '82 models an '81 because it was assembled in '81.
The '79 is another issue, as there were 22 models made, so we can't help you until you help us.
WHAT BIKES ARE WE TALKING ABOUT???

Look for 3 digits stamped on the face of the seat latch or the fuel cap. If you find 3 digits thats the key code. Next get ahold of a locksmith and tell him the key code is XXX and he should be able to cut you a key. Of course tell him year make and model too.MY BIKES..1977 GS 750 B, 1978 GS 1000 C (X2)
1978 GS 1000 E, 1979 GS 1000 S, 1973 Yamaha TX 750, 1977 Kawasaki KZ 650B1, 1975 Honda GL1000 Goldwing, 1983 CB 650SC Nighthawk, 1972 Honda CB 350K4, 74 Honda CB550
NEVER SNEAK UP ON A SLEEPING DOG..NOT EVEN YOUR OWN.
I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.Comment

Thanks for the info, but there is no '79 GS1100 anything.
Again, it's probably an early '80 that was assembled in '79.
You have any pictures of this alleged '79 bike?

Eric asked me to tell you that is the set you're looking for. The ad has the wrong year listed. It is for the '80-81 1100.

It looks very similar to the '78/'79 GS1000 ignition assembly. I just swapped the switch from my '79 that I had cleaned into the keyed housing of my '78. It looks very similar to the pictures in the link and the plug looks to be the same. They may have changed the way the lock comes out of the housing but I would bet my old ones would fit your bike if the bolt spacing is the same for the housing.http://www.thegsresources.com/_forum...ine=1440711157'78 GS1000E, Dyna-S ignition, Dyna Green Coils, K&N pods, Delkevic SS 4-1 exhaust, Dynojet Stage 3 jet kit, Russell SS Brake Lines, Progressive suspension, Compu-Fire series Regulator 55402 and Advmonster cree LED headlight conversion.Comment

Thanks for all the help everyone. I was lucky enough get a key for my locks and not have to drill out my gas cap and change out the rest of the locks. Believe it or not a friend of mine has about 20 Suzuki gs models and he brought a bag of keys over and a couple of them actually worked! One better than the other so I went with the best working one and had two made for $8.00. Thanks again.Comment
