Check the price both ways on the shocks. The konis worked fine on mine. I should throw my 81 GS1000st into the make me an offer bucket really. I doubt I'll ever do anything with it. Too many other projects and toys.

Mate you need to stay away from the stealerships!
These guys,z1enterprises, are your friends for the little things you need.
As an example I needed some shims for my GS1000ET
The shims and a gasket from the bike shop $272 and 2 weeks out of Japan the price out of Z1 was $40 and a week.

Engine and bits have been sold, Spyda has a GS1000L chopper that he is restoring, and I now have space in the shed, so I can start putting the GK back together. I'm still keen to buy the fairing, just sorting making arrangements with our Auckland branch to send it down with the regular inter branch shipments. Once thats sorted I'll PM you.
Dont recall my GSR handle, its been a while...
it's not a bad thing till you throw a KLR into the mix.

You may just find a decent set second hand...also i with the guys who do it them selves,my gs 1000 forks arnt great but i polished the pits out and got some nice italian made seals,usally they last about a year before i have to replace them but its a easy job.My bike is proudly never been restored or washed,easy to work on and lots of fun,maybe some slightl later model tubes could be used..good luck .

Hey Locko. Good to meet you on the ride. There is a video of you on the BFTP thread and social group ride thread.
I have forks for a GS1100G
Hey Pete! You wouldn't happen to have a spare set of GK hard luggage would ya? I have the rack and reckon it would all look ok with the 1000S bikini fairing that I have decided to run with.
Anyone got a 1000S fairing?? lol

No spare bags or top box, sorry.
There are usually some on E-bay if you can find a seller who ships outside the lower 48. Freight costs would be a killer, though, because of the bulk.
