Owners manual 1980 GS1000G

[Guest]

Hi,
Does anyone have a copy of an "Owners Manual" for a 1980 GS1000G?
It will greatly be appreciated.

Maybe someone has one laying around. But if not........these people have a few.

Thanks, but looking for a copy of the owners manual that used to come with the bike not the workshop manual.
If some still has one and can copy it..... thanks!

Sorry, you did say it correctly but I just read what I wanted to read I guess. Hope you find one. Once in a while those things end up on Ebay as well.

I've got the one from my 81 1000G. If this will work, let me know and I'll take a stab a scanning it and e-mail it to you.

This must be my lucky day!! I really appreciate it. The 1981 model is supposed to be exactly the same. Again thank you!

Mr. spindle,

If you don't mind, once you get it scanned if you send me a copy I can hang it on the interweb and share it with everyone.

Thank you for your indulgence,

spindle,
Apologies for bumping this. Hope you get some time to copy the owners manual!
Thanks in advance.

Sorry I haven't got back to you sooner. Things have been kind of busy. The manual is 65 pages and I hope to start scanning this weekend. I'll keep you updated better.

Thanks,

I've got one too somewhere for mine. Benefits of buying from original owner I guess.

A copy of the owners manual will be another step in getting my bike complete and be much appreciated.
Spindle, not trying to rush you and I really appreciate the offer as the 1980 shaftdrive manual is very very scarse
Thanks and appreciation in advance.

Thanks saddlewarmer, but I am still hoping for the GS1000G shaft drive owners manual.
Hopefully spindle or salty-monk gets some free time to scan it.

First I have to remember to take it into work where the scanner is. Is there anything in particular you want from it? I haven't really used it for anything apart from looking at the recommended tyre pressures, the rest is also very basic stuff I'm sure you know or is in the Haynes or Clymer's manuals.

Salty_monk,
I am actually looking for a "complete" one. This is why they are so scarse, normally about 60 pages to scan. I want to bind and laminate the outside pages, so that the bike is as complete as possible with a copy of the original owners manual. I am quite a fanatic about these things and to me it is part of the enjoyment of redoing this bike. Unfortunately no-one around here has one that I could borrow and scan, so I am much dependant on the goodwill of the forum members
I know its a lot of work and will really appreciate a copy, if it does not impact on your time.
