I want an early 80's GS1000L or 1100L. That'd be cool.

So you raked it about 10 degrees and it looks like you lowered the back end about 2 inches. What's that leave you for a trail measurement?

I'd really like to have a bike like that. I still love my c model, but for croozin', that's the shizzle.
Need bigger pics, then I'll put them in my screen saver.

Very Very Sweet!!
How long did it take and how much for the paint, etc?? Did you paint it at home or at a shop somewhere?

Don't be too surprised if I take you up on that offer someday... One of my brothers lives in Minneapolis, and I might have to bring the bike up for an extended visit when I'm ready for paint! Probably won't be for a year or two, though...

Whenever you got the time, accually the sooner the better, i work in the paint shop only while i'm attending MMI (motorcycle mechanics institute) here in phoenix,az. I'm not positive if Ill have a paint shop in my future or even going back to MN. So just to clarify, I'm in phoenix right now attending school for the next year and 4 months, but my home town is in MN... I work in a airbrush/paint shop for cycles now, but when i move out after school i'll be leaving the shop too.-darren

Just wanted to say awesome bike!
As much as I appreciate quality work, I have found that I prefer choppers to cafe racers. Of course, that's more how I will ride, too. I have made an offer on a bike, but don't have one just yet. Once I do, I might have to ask you a couple of questions as I build it!

thanks man! thats the thing i like about my bike, its got that chopper/drag/custom kinda style, I've never seen a bike remotely like my bike, and its without the cost of any new bike/chopper. I spent a total of like 3 grand, just all labor which I personally enjoy, and I've learned a priceless amount via my bike from tairing it down repetedly, and repainting the crap out of it, poor thing has 3-4 paint jobs over the stock base. All while "kickin it up a notch" on the quality and graphics in the paint every time. I'd be happy to answer any question I can for ya-darrenOriginally posted by froldt View PostJust wanted to say awesome bike!
