General Thanks to all!!!

[JK56]

This is more a "general" thank you to all of the "knowledgeable" individuals who have taken their time to post soooo much useful information on here about the upkeep and proper maintenance on these fine machines. I have spent the past three weeks getting my '80 GS1000G ready for the Summer and there is no way I could have ever done it without those of you who post here. With your help, I have done my first valve adjustment (special thanks to Steve for his spreadsheet--they were ALL tight!). I also changed all liquids and changed all cables. The bike runs great and looks great for a 33-year old machine. Thanks again to all (because I read ALL correspondance on here). I also recommend to all others to heed the advice of replacing screws with stainless hexes (from Z1!) because those screws are a beeeatch when they've been in there forever!

Thanks again to all!
