  This one is in Facebook Marketplace, don’t k ow how to
Post a  link, just got to check it out. Great deal, $3000, red, collector plate. IMO, the very best of the air cooled Japanese engines , great power!

Rebuilt title. I was "this" close to buying it.... hence the thread I started regarding rebuilt bikes.

  Good eye,,,,I missed the rebuilt status,,,,,hence the great price.

If so, I don't see where it says rebuilt, other than rebuilt brakes.

[Steve G.]

  Yes, that is the same bike . I don’t see “rebuilt status” anywhere in the advertisement. With that in mind, I consider this a great deal. Of course, buying any machine, one should check status of it.

AWESOME BIKES.  I rode one once and scared the hell out of me and I was used to the earlier 1100's. One of the best looking bikes of that era.

   I actually prefer the look of the square headlight 1981 GS1100E, and I'm not a square headlight kinda person. I think it's the visual "one piece" tank/side cover thing that I'm just not into.  Great bike though.

I spoke to the seller in length about it, he told me that it has rebuilt status but didn't know why and when. He bought it as a Covid project and has $2000 in receipts for the work that he did. It sounds like a great bike if you're not averse to owning a bike with a rebuilt title... unfortunately for me, I am.
