Post a picture of your custom GS

I was being impatient with it and didnt think it through you know.

I do like the looks of the shortened/forward seat and tail of yours.....I've got a V-rod seat and some tarozzi rear set pieces on a shelf if I ever try that route {and acquire another cycle for two upping on}.

I want to redo it on another frame. Insteadof chopping off the rear i want to just section out maybe like 5 inches. Itd be a little longer than what i have now and keep all the original bracketry and maybe even the rear inner fender. A true "if zuk had made the single seat gs"

Here is my gs750

Holyshoot...that's the first GS I've seen with Shoei saddles! That's the style I'd do for added storage...and I know where a set is like that for $100 {with a key}...how'd you run the mounts? I don't think I'd copy you on the partial barkalounger[lol], but, the side saddles I might. {whats alittle more weight on my 850G?...}

i got a zillion more but those show various angles

...truck looks like an Apache...

yes...I did...created a folder with some pics of the process in onedrive...not sure if the link will work...hopefully it does

Nice metal forming...like the black mesh insert too...nice contrast. How'd you anchor the bottom of each cover though? {rare earth magnets...clip...?}

heres my work in progress, its changed a little since this was taken..

Dragged this back out, still lots to do. Other stuff getting in the way though.

Nice work!

The link worked for me.

I like the side covers. You fabricated them I'm sure.

Amen to that! Give details, puh-leeeeeze! Or have you done a 'build thread'? If so, drop a link, would ya!
-KR

no build thread yet....I have plenty of pictures from the start to this point and even a power point up to a few weeks ago...i'll get around to it soon hopefully...it's been pretty much all cosmetic besides some brake caliper rebuilds...

Rotty-

That looks bad@$$!

thanks Rotty...cant wait to ride it...gotta bleed the back brakes and fix a pinhole in the tank and hopefully it'll be ready

Pretty cool project!

I also dig what I can see of the old Chevy Truck in the background. 55 ish?

I am told it is a 58...belongs to the chick that cuts my hair...I get free haircuts and she gets to keep her truck ad her 85 (ish) nighthawk in my shop...she is planning a little restoration for the truck...replace the wood in the bed (long bed which she says is pretty rare) and reupholster the seats. Some pin striping and her salon logo done up antique style...
