Long wait finally over
I know I promised this over two years ago, but in the next few days you will find a PDF of the R80G/S workshop manual for GS's from 1980 to 1987 on the workshop page on my website: Welcome to GS Workshop

it's all done!!!
The workshop manual for the 1980 to 1987 R80G/S is finally available as a free download on this website - Welcome to GS Workshop -
It covers the 80 to 87 mono-lever 2V air-cooled boxer model and is illustrated with black & white photographs, and yes it does include the complete repair of the final drive unit.
The file is about 19 MB large and depending on the speed of your connection it will take a couple of minutes to download. Dial-up connectors might need to be much more patient for the 249 pages to download.
To follow will be the manuals of the R80-100GS and R1150GS, optimized to download in half the time.
You can also be on the lookout for more useful info and images on R80 and 100 GS's coming up on the workshop page.

R80g/s manual
That's excellent!!!
Thanks for all your time and effort in putting the manual on line, I've just downloaded it to use with my R65GS which is just a smaller engined and detuned version of the R80g/s.

Could you not 'zip' the file to make it smaller, and use less of your bandwidth?

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
