    Nice looking. I would like to see a better picture of how you made the gauge cluster wind deflector.

        Thank you! Yes the seat and the rear end are the next move. That seat on my bike is definitely the wrong one for that model. Im Looking at a couple seats on dimecitycycles with a new pan, and i might either remove, or shorten the rear fender and do a smaller brake light. Just made some number plates to cover my sides of the battery! Will post new pictures later on this year hopefully.

          Sup, fellas?

          Been awhile, but I cleaned up the bike with yet another tank seat combo.



          Forgot to take pics after riding, will update with some better shots.

              Ah you kids today with your low bars.
              The vintage Suzuki badging is very cool.

                Very nice, I like the shortened seat and rear fender, finishes it nicely.

                congrats, well done!

                I would rather trust my bike to a technician that reads the service manual than some backyardigan that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix things.

                  I like the tank and headlight paint colors particularly, and the seat looks comfy.
                  Looks like you used salvaged foot setbacks, like to know what from?

                    Thanks! The seat is pretty comfy. Haven't gotten around to installing the rear pegs yet. I might change the seat into a solo seat. The rearsets came off a early 2000s Hayabusa that apparently was being parted out on Craigslist. I still need to cut and paint the front fender and make new side panels. I will be moving the electronics on the left side of the battery first, as some of it sticks out a little further than I'd like and I want to make the new panels as close as possible to the frame. Also considering painting the header wrap.

                      I thought of Suzuki when I saw those foot pegs, they resemble those on a 1990s GSXF Katana.
                      I'd recommend the bar end weights from a Katana or a Hayabusa because they are the biggest I've seen.
                      I want to put endwights on my Katana project because my clip-ons are made of aluminum and vibrate like a tuning fork.
                      I wanna put em on my 1100G too, as I'm using a Drag bar on that.

                        Currently running bar end mirrors, so the weights wouldn't work.
