Blimey, you guys and your projects scare me! How on earth can anyone get a bike in that state sorted? You simply astound me. Good luck with it.

well i picked the bike up as a parts bike for my other full original 88 cane however that was stolen and for buying this bike for $100 US i figured its better than buying a brand new bike, plus itll have sentimental value once its running and racing in the midwest circuits!

Just for you, Flogger, my 1984 GPZ which slid into a pole at high speed. Front end and forks pretty banged up....

This is the one I sold - took the GPZ in part exchange......took ages as it had broken and bent valves, rotten tank and seat, no clocks, flat shocks, bent bars, blown electrics, etc etc

Superb. I would love something like that in the garage (as well as the 1F). My mate used to have as GS1000 years ago but I was too young then to appreciate its looks etc.
