Is that what it's supposed to look like?  I just bought a 75 H1 from a co-worker and it's blue.  It looks like someone tried to repaint it with a rattle can.  When I look at the parts fiche sites though it says blue is the color.  It will be a project to bring it back to proper condition.

Some of those really bring back memories. Beautiful bikes. I had several of those gs1000g's back in the day; biggest was built to 1238cc's. they were great bikes as long as the cranks were welded and you knew where to get an extra stator or 2... steve

I saw the picture of the RZ on this thread and felt the need to post some of my past toys.

My first bike. Second place in a poker run.



1985 RZ350



This is after I high-sided it and painted it Ferrari red.



I think this was my favorite bike when I was younger.



Owned three XL's. Two 350's and one 600.


Years ago.


After a long night of tearing the dirt bikes a part.



Loaded up and heading to Christmas Valley.



Triumph Tiger. I really liked this bike.



Bought the Buell months before Harley shut them down.  >:(




Owned this bike for a day and a half. After the ticket on the first day I took it back. Wish I would of kept this bike.



And of course,  the Connie. My new favorite bike.
