Hello from Guernsey - Channel Islands was created by sarnia
Hi,

New member here, just picked up a 1982 GPz 550 H1, a very rough, very cheap Ebay purchase. Will need a lot of work and this looks like a good place to get info / advice.

Cheers
Richard

Will take me a bit of time to get it back to Guernsey due to covid but is getting delivered to my parents place in Scotland for now.

Is rough but was cheap enough at £250. I am looking forward to getting it stripped.

Guernsey is close to France, correct ?

Yes, that's correct, that picture is on Sark, another Channel Island a couple of miles away, no vehicles allowed on Sark other than tractors !

Welcome Richard.
Surely a worthwhile endeavour... keeping a GPz alive!
All the info you will need is right here.
Pick up (and read thoroughly) the repair manual in the files section of this forum.
