Any interest in a 1983 GS1100G thats sitting in my shed and which I'm pretty sure I'll never have the time to do anything with? It is completely standard, all there, most of the chrome including standard looking exhaust is pretty pitted, tank and seat are good, I was told "ran when parked" (seller is known to me and I believe him), motor turns freely. No battery. Registration expired/ cancelled

Been there done that and thoroughly enjoyed it. Big old girls but effective tourers even now.

Telling you nothing new but just to keep the conversation going.

Only to the rear wheel.

Chain to the cam and primary is neither by chain belt nor shaft.

I'm still keeping the GK (The one with the tupperware) I got the G more or less to keep it from being scrapped, and it would be a relatively straightforward job to get it back on the road but I don't have the space to strip it down and rebuild, and I'm not getting any younger, either.

I have three halves of a GooSe I can throw in if that sweetens the deal for anyone... free to a good home. Or a bad one, I don't actually care.
