    New GS Owner

    Just bought my first GS, a 1981 GS850G. Needs some mechanical work, I have a severe loss of compression in my #2 cylinder, it goes in for a leak down test tomorrow. I was wondering since I am likely going to be doing a full rebuild on this engine, does anyone make a 6 Speed transmission upgrade for this bike?

    No six speed parts available. You could swap out your 5th gear and change the secondary gears to a taller set. Go to the General GS forum and look for my post on gear ratios for large shafties.

    Good luckl

    To measure is to know.
