Hi. I'm Greg. And I'm a wingaholic lol. I just can't help myself. I picked up an 83 Aspencade yesterday. Engine is a bit tired... Heads are off... But bores feel OK. At $800 aus I couldn't say no. So I think I'll slot my good 1100 engine into that.
I'll probably strip it down and do ground up build on it.
So that's now in my lot... 1 x 01 CBR1100XX Super Blackbird, 1 x 81 GL1100, 1 x 75 GL1000, and now the 83 1100 Aspencade.

Looks like a nice find, especially if you've got another engine to swap in. Enjoy the ride!
