2 cylinder pictures :P

Charlie,
yes i think it sounds much better... i am glad some one else thinks so to... maybe the battery did freeze and crack, the po wasn't giving up to much info about it, but said he sold the battery... he said it was popping and cracking and backfiring last time he had it running and wasn't sure why... turned out to be a dead plug on the right side and needing a good cleaning of the carbs, a valve adjustment and i think the piece foam rubber that was in the airbox that wasn't letting it breathe...i couldn't push 80 psi through it with a air hose... so till i get a real filter i have a tee shirt in there working as the filter...he also threw in a set of new tires and a set of used handle bars... the tires are kenda challenger k657 100/90/19 front 120/90/16 rear dont know how good they are but they are new... the handle bars are to big in diameter so i cant use them i think they are 1" bars...

i still need a air filter the p.o. had a piece of foam rubber stuffed in the air box and it couldn't breathe very well... so just for testing i put a rolled up tee shirt in the box... i know that ain't oem but i got to start it... the more i look at it the more i think the bike has fell on the right side sometime in its past... it dont have road rash maybe fell off the stand or got pushed over... the handle bars are bent some on the right and the turn signals are kind of banged up on the same side... and just might explain the acid that has eaten the paint around the battery box and on the exhaust...

Rooster,

That sounds better to me than the last video. What do you think? Batteries will freeze, so I'm told.

The 250, right after polishing week.

Let me revive this thread. I've seen so many new GS twins popping up. But not a lot of pics of them . How about it? Post pictures of your GS twin here!

Here is the most recent pic of mine...

Hmmmm... that could be a handy combination...

I've still to visit a wrecker to look for things like a different seat pan and stuff, so I plan on checking the case saver situation while I'm at it.

Looks exactly like my bike, just a larger engine. Wish mine was a 400.

The girlfriends old man is a retired metal fabricator, he has a pipe bender too. I wouldn't mind some case savers....

Ah, yes. The GS500. It still counts as a 2 cylinder

Can you do me a favor, GSexpress? Let me know what size tires your GS500 uses.
