It has been awhile since I bought this 1981 GL1100 /Triwing trike. It was a light roll over but has about 60,000 miles on it. It had sat a while (outside) b/4 I got to it. I did get it to run last fall but will need much work. Fast forward to this week. I found a 1981 GL1100 with 50,000 miles. Price was in the ball park so I went to see it. Bike started and runs sweet. Has about normal wear for year and mileage. But you can tell it has been taken care of. So I bought it. The new plan is to swap the trike kit on it and run it this summer for shake down before a tear down this winter for a paint job. I will have to replace the belts before I run it just to be on the safe side. I am planning to flush all fluids just for good measure. I will post photos along the way for those who would like to see the end result. Not sure when I can start as I have a VW trike that gets a motor overhaul this spring first, and have an older 1969 Honda CL450 bobber project to try to finish and sell. But it things work here are a few pics to start the ball rolling. The plan for the leftovers would be a naked GL1100 tied to a sidecar with an Old School look. John
