I have a 80 1000g like alot. mostly original. had to replace the stator, got 1 from Custom Rewinders for $65. also, i`m 5'6" tall and it was kinda tall, so i cut about an inch and a half off of the rear springs, so i dont fall over on uneven ground. Also got a new battery and had to replace the o-rings on the carb inlet needle seats.(leaking) still got work to do, but as long as it runs, I`M RIDING!! it does run pretty good for 68,000 miles and 25 yrs. I wanted a newer cruiser but after a year of riding this one, i`m not sure any new bike is going to perform and be as comfortable as this one. just thought i`d put in my 2 cents.

Welcome to the boards, lots of useful info and pretty decent people here. My bike would stiff be a pile of parts if it wasn't for this site.

68,000 miles, huh? You'll be through the break in period soon!

Welcome. I too would have a pile of parts if not for the crazies on this site.

good to hear that everyone can help here. I am trying to ressurect my '77 gs750. And I will die before I scrap this bike, it would be a crime considering it has less than 20k on it. Seriously I hope you guys can help me turn my pile of parts into a bike.
