Hi there,
I am new to this site as well, actually this will be my first reply. I am also hoping to learn about first generation GW’s from this site. There is certainly a lot to know. So far I have learned how to collect about 15 K0-K1 bikes. One of which is a sulfur yellow bike. They are relatively rare and with good paint even more rare. Yours looks like a pretty nice example. You are fortunate to have the rear grab bar which is frequently missing. I did notice along with the incorrect seat, turn signals (front and rear) mirrors and shocks, the carbs are from a gl1100. The correct carbs for your bike are 758A. That will most certainly matter when you order your Randakks carb kit. What is your plan for it? Return to stock or customize?
