I had a red 1981 GS750 bought new in 1982. My friend hated that bike because it was faster than his Z1. Like all my bikes I still regret selling it. Thx for sharing the article. |

Use the bucket method and RV antifreeze in the winter. Use Google to view videos on how to construct. Never store any food of any kind in the same building as your bikes. |

I have a NOS cluster with some slight imperfections in the "plastic cover". Won't be free but would be a nice addition to most bikes. |

I vote for the TomK bike Hondo posted above. I don't like some of the mods on an individual basis -- don't flame me here -- but the sum of these mods/parts are truly stunning!!!
Way to go Tom! |

If you aren't using the instrument cluster are you selling it?
Yes I am selling the cluster. I'm sure the light scratches could be polished out but I'm not going there. It would be sold as is. |
