Hello all. So, I've got this old engine from a 1982 GS1000SZ that I'm interested in selling off. I was wondering if anyone here may be interested in it. I know everyone is putting Gixer & Bandit engines in their chassis but just maybe someone is looking to build up a liter class roadracer or something. I had never run the engine. It was purchased in a low-sided Kat back in late eighties ( right-hander lowside- too much front brake I'll bet ) and the bodywork was destroyed. Well, that and the tank because the clip-on punctured it. Also, the ignition was removed using the asphault grinding method. I checked the crank runout with a couple of different dial indicators and found no problems with runout. The insurance company totaled the bike. I spotted it in the back of a shop I frequented in Fremont, Ca. and inquired about it. I had a kitten of my own and was always on the prowl for parts. The shop owner said "make me an offer" which I did and we loaded the bike into my pick-up. I scored a nice gauge assy., a Bassani Superbike pipe, and an untouched wiring loom. Any-who, I have had this engine in a clean, dry environment, oiled the cylinders every year and been turning the thing over by hand. I have all of the covers, most all of the fasteners. What do you guys think I should be asking for it. I'm in Loveland, Colorado.
Thanks in advance for your input.
