Hi all, My beautiful girlfriend and i have started restoring my 1980 GS1000. So far we are still in deconstruction mode. Probably one more afternoon of pulling stuff apart. We have logged about 10 hours work so far. The motor runs nicely so we will only clean it up and replace gaskets and bolts etc for now. When it needs a rebuild we will cross that bridge. I guess you all know the bikes so i will let the pics tell the story so far. Any feedback is welcome.

Is that an O'Brien exhaust?
I have one like it on my 750 and I can't find any information about them.
EDIT: Scratch that. I just found out the history.

Good luck with the rebuild, Shoota.
Are you going with stock paint and decals? Even if you aren't do you have any info on the stock paint of an '80 from your country.?2@ \'78 GS1000Comment

Nice looking ride Shoota. Always great to see these bikes restored. In the process of doing one myself. Take your time and don't rush dude. It'll be a great pastime over the winter...NickComment

I probably wont be going with a factory colour. But it will be classy. I have a colour in my head and the only way i can describe it is it is a dirty silver. I know very little about the exhaust. And i dont know a lot about these bikes either except that they are nice to ride. Here is one my father and i prepared earlier. Unfortunately we sold it and when my ex wife and i sold our Hyosung Limited editions i needed a bike. So i bought the gs im working on.Comment
