new from Illinois

[Ghost Rider 2]

Ghost Rider 2 here. used to hang around here few years back. Just purchased a 1 owner 25,000 mile 1980 GL1100. Bike in pretty good shape just a few things I want to address on the bike to make it better. I also ride a 1800 but I have always loved the older wings. Have owned several over the years and glad to have one back in my garage.

Thanks I really like it. Picked it up last weekend. It just had new battery, tires, and timing belts installed. Plastic is all good. only issue is right exhaust has bad spot. I will get that fixed soon. I enjoy riding these bikes.

I got the exhaust off the bike. Turned out to be more than minor repair. The right pipe is junk. Looked around several places could not find one I wanted. I found a parts bike about 100 miles from me. Exhaust in great shape. My bike is now up and running. Had a nice ride on it yesterday. No I have a parts bike. It is a black 83. Been sitting for 7 years so tank is rough. Other than that bike pretty good shape. If anyone needs anything I would like to try and recoup a little of my purchase.
