[QUOTE="RichDoyle, post: 1233755, member: 84694"] I had a '75 GL1000. That was a totally different experience than the new ones. Believe it or not, that original model was about the same weight as an FJR, largely because it was a naked bike. Lots less power, of course, but supremely comfortable. Of course, I was younger then, but it is still the bike on which I had my longest single-day ride: 920 miles. Stock seat, though different bars. But I don't miss it, really. Various technical primitiveness relative to new bikes in numerous ways. [/QUOTE]
