Hello from southern Indiana

[ebraysmith]

Hello:
I just joined after buying a 1977 GL1000 project.
It's not bad, but been sitting outside for 2 years.
Initial shine up is going well with some pleasant mechanical surprises--though it's shorted out.

The plan is to try to see if it runs then pull carbs and so some more thorough diagnostics.
Not in a real hurry to get it on the road as I also have the baby brother 1982 SilverWing GL500.

So for now, I'm gently tinkering and learning.

Hello and thanks for the welcome all!

It seems all I do is take mine more (gently) apart to check things before doing a fire up, but hey, it's cold out there, so I've got time.

I've appreciated what I've been able to learn here. Keep up the good work, everyone!
