Hi Scott and welcome to the site, I will leave the official welcome to the "official welcoming committee":goofygrin:
I had two 1000gl wings and never had particular problems. Both needed jobs doing over the years, but no recurring problems.
They are a nice bike and relatively easy to work on, plus, for those who like to, they can be personalised more than the dressers that came after.
Never had the pleasure of riding the 1100 Virago, so can't advise on the differences in ride etc. Perhaps someone on here has experienced both.
Plenty of folks will chip in given time on the whys and wherefores of the 1000.
Happy riding if you decide to trade and you will find this site a pleasure to visit, for advice or fun.
Again welcome, from over the pond.:waving:
Pete
