Can I bug you about tips, tricks, parts and quirks as I approach re-furbing mine as the needs arise?
(PM's or do prefer open forum discussions for all to take advantage of the info?)
Max, I can't take too much credit for the GP; I bought it from the original owner who took good care of it. A general clean-up, lube for the chain and air and it was good to go. I did however replace the stock vinyl saddle with a Wright leather saddle, added the seat bag as well as the water bottle just below the handlebars. You can PM me if you have specific questions about my GP and send general questions to the forum.
