This is where the story started.... A Craigslist ad for a 78 GS1000 that had not been started since 1990....$400
I thought it would be a good parts bike for 78 GS1000 I already had.
The bike looked complete, but the Arizona sun had scorched everything within the suns range.
The engine was free, so that was all I needed to know to go through with the deal. I brought it home, and thats when the plan started to change.
