What a great weekly Dragbike that GS would make!  Ask Pat Vaughn at "FBG" Paul Gast's shop! (Patrick Answers The Phone!)
He bought a stock one, similar, and runs the F out of it, Never touches it!        Gas, Plugs, Oil.

I SOLD OUT! THE KAW BARN IS EMPTY.
More room for The Old Girl, Harley 75 FLH Electra Glide,
Old faithful! Points ign. Bendix Orig. carb.
Starts everytime!

That's how the 80' GS 1100 has been. After a 16 year nap we went through the 16k mile bike and added a Delkevik exhaust system and a set of RS36 carbs on it. Since then we replaced the clutch and just ride it.

Hi Kelly!, seeing this is a GS 1100 thread.
I have a Suzuki axle, not sure if it's GS 1100 for the aluminum swinger??
Or a GS 1000??
Would you happen to know? Or have either one to measure? I had a box of Suzuki stuff on eBay for $15 no one bought? It was too heavy? ended ad. Now I can offer single items.
Thanks anyone in advance for your time.

This one is 12-5/8" Long. measured from bottom of bolt head. Just need to know what this fits?
And all those years I re-did  GS1100 aluminum swing arms! 5-6 of them. I never saved any info! 

Thanks, Marty in Buffalo

The bolt on the 81' is the same size by my best eyeball guesstimate since it's still installed.
