1981 GL1100 "Dual Sport"

[Whiskerfish]

Almost Identical to my 08. I got it in 19 and am closing on 50,000 miles since I picked it up.

Earlier today.
Dirt roads around 8000 ft. elevation in the rocky mountains.
Looks like it's about time for another back tire.

Some more dirt road riding.
This bike has done great hauling us many miles on dirt.
I'm suprised that more people dont take their oldwings off of the pavement.

Just awesome.
I do take mine off the pavement since I live on a mile of gravel road but I do not actively seek out gravel roads on my wing. For that i have my xr650r
