      I hope you get a good buyer for it that keeps it with the same interest you had.

      If you were just a tad closer I'd certainly be giving it some thought...
      I would buy it right now if I had the money. Seriously, no joke. Kudos to a well done bike

        Still here. Lurking on all FC's gremlins! I've had two offers, one pretty lowball and one with a decent chunk of money+ gear I need. What's strange, is that it's been absolutely pouring all week and I've had tons of interest. Today, it's beautiful and sunny, and not a single email or phone call. I guess everyone's out getting their vitamin D while they can.

          So are you going to continue to lurk after it's sold? I hope so, no need to disappear just coz you're GS-less

          Hopefully whoever buys it is either a member here or joins up so we can see that they look after it too...

            Pending Sale...

            Nice guy though. He will join GSR shortly. He is super excited about the bike. It's always nice to pass off a project to someone just as geeked as I am.

            Been looking at GS500's......and SV's.....and TL's.....

            Hopefully my next post will introduce everyone to the new baby!

              I assume that "baby" is a child and not a MC. Congrats.

                Sad news, but good news all at the same time.

                I guess you're sort of losing one baby for another... one with less wheels and more legs... I wonder which will be louder though?

                    Well, I finally went over to the dark side...... of the GS's anyway. Bought a 92 GS500 and guess I will be spending a bit of time over on the twins board.

                      I think thats a fine GS. I prefer the models without the fairing. Good find.

                        Thanks Charlie,

                        Believe it or not, I got it on ebay. The guy was trying to sell it here locally on CL for awhile asking $1300 with no takers. I got it for a little more than half that! Normally I wouldn't have taken such a risk but it seems to have turned out ok. It also happens that the main contributor on the twins forum lives like two miles from me and has a ton of parts. No project for this one though, just going to enjoy my time riding.

                          I remember I saw a silver one on CL for weeks! I wonder if that was the one I saw? Very nice find!

                          So what ever happened to the guy that bought your GS450? I sure hope he joins the GSR.

                            He's coming over to do a re-jet this weekend. I still have the bike in my garage for a few days.... (FC you need to come check it out!)

                            And yes this is the same guy that was on CL.

                              Yeah, this will probably be my last chance to see it in person. But guess what? The bike isn't running, the car is in the shop, and there's no way my parents would let me borrow the car . Oh well. I have no school until Monday too.

                                Nice one Scott! Mate it's still a GS, just a much newer one
