Was the 1100 a bored thou, or stroked too? From Googling (so worth what I paid for it...) there was apparently a GS1000G available in other markets which had the same bore/stroke (70.0 x 64.8) as the GS1000. The GS1100 (not available in the UK?) and GS1100G appear to have been bored and stroked (72.0 x 66.0). The GS850 appears to have been a bored 750 (69.0 x 56.4 vs 65.0 x 56.4). I'd guess the 850 cranks were similar to/the same as the 750, not sure about the 1000 and 1100. Mike

God, but I loved the look of the 'S'. Right up until it got ousted (in my mind) by the Katana. Of course, I then discovered Kawasakis... -- Chris
