    WTF is THIS!??!?!

    Looks like a Dunstall, Tracy or a Rickman body to me.
    Don't let the beaver chew on it though, it's fiberglass. (bad for beavers)

      Pretty much makes a 78 look like an 83 to 85 GS700E doesn't it?

              Man that thing is pretty cool!!! If anyone tells me that it will fit on my 82 850...I might just put a bid on it for a cool project!!!! Looks like a sweet base for a cafe build! So.............that means, does anyone know if it will fit??? 8-[

                    Better check out how much fuel it carries. It could be a dragbike body in which case it might only carry a half gallon of gas!

                      I bet it is for a dragbike. See how much it extends past the tire? Can you say stretched swingarm?

                          One of my friends had a Tracy body like that on a 78 GS750. They are definately cool. They hold between 3 and 4 gallons, if I remember right. Dropped the weight by 15-20 pounds, I think. If I were going to build a cafe racer, I would want to put one of those bodies on it.

                            It looks exactly like the 82/83 Gs1100E Tracy body I sent to my Brother in Wyoming. The one I sent still had the Tracy badges on the rear. The one in the pick looks like it was ment to fit the GS1100 and not the GS750.
