Well after almost 2 years and 2 bike i finally got her up and on the road.total cost for both bikes and tires ect is around $1100,but after selling most of the extra's(still got some extra parts still)im into it about 500 bux.
Took her out and she ran GREAT.No issues,only the broken tapedeck rattling around..lol..
As it sits its a 1980 GL 1100 standard with 83 Aspencade bags,racks,trunk,fairing ClarionII ect.Was a little frustrating with some of the wiring ect but all in all it was well worth it.All thats left is to make the passenger backrest,paint this winter and timing belts in the winter.
ill post some pics as well

Great feeling, huh? My 1100 ran when I got it but had a lot of issues. After the winter rebuild it was truly a rewarding experience to hear it start up again and taking her out on the road the first time was really exciting.
Congrats on the success you have had so far. Get those belts done though. It's about the only thing that can hurt these bullet proof 1100s.
