LOL sounds like hell.... Hey I like the kayaks in the backgound on the 1150 picture, (my other sport).

I'm your Dads age. It's really not that old. LOL you will understand later.

I have three boys all 7 and under. Now i'll be old when they are your age. Stay upright and enjoy it!

awsome man! what part of NY do you live in? I am planning on building a gs1000 track bike too. Where do you plan on racing/riding it?

[anthonygs1000]

racing and kayking ??

I live in up state NY just out side of Binghamton a small town called Endicott ( it is where IBM started ) we have a 1/8 mile drag track called sky view drags I raced there last summer for my first time on my dads 1980 gs1100e I did 7.5 at 94mph on this bike. I want to race at Pocono Raceway when they have open track days I think it will be sweet to race on my 1979 Wes Cooley bike.
as far a the kayaks go it is the next best thing to motorcycling I have ever done in my life, its like getting close to god and the chicks dig it too!!!!!!

[Tarbash 27]

Thats cool, I was thinking about doing some track days at pocono and loudon when I build my GS1000 track bike. Im going to build a bike from scratch. Then eventually do some traveling to tracks down south. Daytona?

Update on the pseudo tracker...

[sark]

the side is too ugly to show, but im in love with the stance!

[sark]

its like getting close to god and the chicks dig it too!!!!!!

The closest I have been to god was this time I had a girl laying on her back with her head tilted back and I... eeeeeeh nevermind. But hello to a fellow upstater! I'm in the poughkeepsie area, where IBM is now.

wes bike


This is my wes project I am unsure if I will build for track or for street it has a ton of motor work done to it So far.
I am doing a wiesco kit and a gs 1100gk head with the d port right now

if you plan on using it for track then i suggest losing those mirrors.....they must double the drag factor on your wind resistance lol

[anthonygs1000]

I think the mirrors are off something else I only have one from the original wes bike. I need a wind screen for this bike too, it is brittle I found new ones from Gustafson plastic http://www.bikescreen.com/contact.html for around $100.00. this bike was already on the track by the guy who bought it new, his name was Walt Faber all the bolts were drilled and wired. The crank, transmition and clutch are done up .It has heavy
cylinder head stud kit, oil cooler, steering stabilizer it came with two sets of shocks the others are koni's blue with black springs they need paint or powder coat. and boy was the price right $$$$$$$$$$$ (I cant tell you how cheep this bike was or I will get kicked off this site )
P.S. check out that seat it has some Italian name on it and the seat pan is fiberglass not metal
