Sandblast Rally in SC...

http://advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1021622
I rode my GS from ATL, did the rally racing clinic and was a volunteer course marshal.
Super fun. If you ever want to see bikes and cars rally racing or do it yourself here's the first event of the season.

GS Challenge anyone?

A few years ago I got a sweet old R100GS bumblebee with the intended purpose of entering the GS Challenge with the hopes of being picked for the U.S. GS Trophy team.

Re: monoshock Airhead Trailer Hitch

I'm pretty sure the only paralever trailer hitches Ive seen are single sided. Ive got an 88 R100Gs and will match up the bracket, see what comes of it. If it looks promising I will reply with more info...

Re: R100GSPD oil pan/center stand skid plate assembly

Thanks Tim. Ive got that plate on my GS. I want the PD version, much more substantial and there is a plate that goes on the centerstand also.
Good pix I saw of you on FB at Pebble Beach BTW.

Re: Converting to electronic ignition

after being stranded by aftermarket electronic ignition units on old Airheads I finally got around to understanding what I was missing. Maintaining the stock ignition system, the bean can in this case & IMO is a great system requiring little maintenance is kind of fool proof once you spend just ...
