I only use the black ties when it's a formal job1978 Gs1085 compliments of Popy Yosh, Bandit 1200 wheels and front end, VM33 Smoothbores, Yosh exhaust, braced frame, ported polished head :cool:
1983 Gs1100ESD, rebuild finished! Body paintwork happening winter 2017:D
I would rather trust my bike to a technician that reads the service manual than some backyardigan that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix things.

For the record: Ray just did a bunch of major work for me and his prices/communication were great the entire time... Check the projects/rebuilds section for my GS1000 restoration thread.
On the surface, the work looks great - I will give the final report once the engine is back together and running!

I just got my 80 1100 head back form APE. I originally sent the head to a shop that "specialized" in GS heads. After spending way to much money I learned from APE that the valves were slightly bent and needed grinding. I also had to have it resurfaced due to a low spot between cylinder 2 and 3. Long story short APE has the most affordable prices and they do the best work. Not to mention their customer service is A+. I also had them build a GSXR 1100 head that I am very happy with.
(Ignore the missing hardware)

PS Back in my day, head shops sold black lights, day-glo posters, Indian bidis, bongs, pipes, rolling papers, incense and Zap comics. Am I leaving anything out?Last edited by Rob S.; 01-20-2015, 09:59 PM.1982 GS1100E V&H "SS" exhaust, APE pods, 1150 oil cooler, 140 speedo, 99.3 rear wheel HP, black engine, '83 red
