Mine, although not as up to date as some here.
i bought this in the states in 1989, been all over the states with it,
came down pikes peak lol. ( new goal, to driver back up ion something powerfull)

Then used it in competition in Ireland for a number of years

Just dug it out after nearly 15 years, ( off the fags a month or so now)
said id start getting fit again.

So i started a wee refurb on her:
*New Tyres, ( old one were cracked to bit. and narrow by today standards)
*Removed all the stickers, faded and cracked
*New chain
*New Front derail er
* need to get my rear sprocket looked at.

But looking better for the few hours work already.
Im looking into upgrading my brakes to disks, but may have to weld bracket for the rear setup.
Need to look at a newer version of the GT to see what i need






stickers iv ordered. although, not the exact same as before, but close
I like that cant beat a spot of retro!!!! with history to
