bock on 2 wheels after 14 years

#1 Unread post by ubarw »

I finally picked up a new bike, well new to me. I just got an '80 GL1100, 30k miles.

Its sooo nice to once again feel the fork stretch out when I hit the throttle....

YeeHaw! :D

Welcome to TMW!

Those wings run forever, don't they? Have fun out there, ride safe, and keep us posted on how you're doing. By the way, you got any pics of it?

Use this site: http://picsplace.to/index.php It's free. just use the browse button to find the pic on your computer you want to upload, then copy and paste the url tags after it's uploaded in your post here. They even have a clickable thumbnail feature, like this:
