Another project to add to my pile. GPz1100 was created by Nebr_Rex

Went to an estate sale and picked up an "81 GPz1100. Everything was going cheap.
The guy was a local drag racer that died of a heart attack. All the high dallor cars
went to the family ( 69 Mach 1, 427 Galaxy, etc..). There were 2 drag cars. A "70
Mustang w/ aluminum 650"+,Lenco went for $9100 . A fiberglass Willys coupe w/
514,auto went for $4800 . The harleys ( one was bleeding oil :whistle: ) sold for less
than the "06 'Busa ($5600) .

If you want to spare yourself the time and expense of fixing it up, I could relieve you of that troublesome, burdensome bike :laugh:

My wife asked me if I still loved her - I said "Honey, I love you more than new carburetor boots ! "

$1600. I thought it would go higher. There were a few people standing
around it long before the auctioneer arrived.

Got the thing running. Replaced the coils and wires. Cleaned the petcock and return valve.
Swapped the pipe and bars. Also turned the front fender the right way and install a 'better' tire.

Beautiful bike! You got yourself a nice bike for the price. Looks like a $3000 machine easy. I like the naked GPz's better than the swoopy lines of the later models .
