I have recently come in to company with a GS1000S (date on steering head says 3/78). I know that they were only true 1000S' in 79-80. Mine is blue and white, has the full dash with clock, 4 into 1 TT style pipe, 17" rear wheel (they were supposed to have 18" wheels except Germany). I am in Canada and haven't been able to verify if we got 17" wheels on the rear or not. I have read about the carb differences and I a lever actuated choke on the carbs and they are not CV carbs. It has chrome large signals, a flat seat with a square, non-raised, pattern. There is also a dual black pinstrip under the seat base, on the small amount of body work that runs the length of the seat. The gas filler cap is semi rectangular and the stripes go off the front and don't 'U' around the filler. The rear brake return spring is on the outside of the frame and the rear shocks have a handle that flips up to adjust preload and has 4 or 5 rebound settings at the top. HELP ME determine if this is actually what I hope it is or if it's just a replica. The side covers are mint and it cclearly states GS1000S, but they are easily swapped. Thanks in advance.
