Post a picture of your custom GS

Yeah you see that extra clutch cover breather a lot on UK GS1000s but I never understood the need. Curious if oil ever winds up that steel braided breather hose, thus proving the fact that there is pressure which needs to be vented from that portion of the motor.

you will never see a pressure build up enough to show on a gauge through this vent, or oil winding its way up the hose.
big bore motors will inevitably produce more crankcase pressure due to the larger mass of pistons reciprocating in the engine.
the top vent will cope with most engines unless you go up to massive CC turbo/nitrous/nutter engines.
it merely is there to help vent fumes building up in the lower crankcase area and reduce any oil blown through the top vent.
any oil that does build up in the vent pipe is oil mist caused by hot running,high revving engines.
(even race built monkey bikes have them fitted! )

Here are some pics of my 1980 gs550e , ive been working on it the passed few months, its coming along nicely. She's back on the road and running pretty good, still tweaking it and adding stuff to it as i go.

Is that all paint, or powdercoat?

Is that all paint, or powdercoat?

The tank, fender , tail piece and side panels are all paint, the engine side covers and some other parts are powder coated flat black. I've been slowly bringing more parts as i work on the bike to the powder coater....

Very nicely done....

that is very nice 5t341sir!

Im usually not one for the unpainted tank, and single saddle like that but Jesus... That really is a thing of beauty. Both from a mechanical/bike standpoint, and from a photography standpoint. That is the most beautiful bike I have seen in a while. Bravo Brent, truly great work.

Thanks.

I am not a fan of the seat either anymore.
Need to do something with it.

[5t341th]

Hello, I have been the onwer of the 82 GS850Gfor 5 days now and I absolutely love this bike. I have been looking through this thread for the last 5 hours (its a slow night at work). There are a lot of good looking GSes out there.
