Post a picture of your custom GS

[Beaver]

Ha ha ha... I fell in love with a helmet from Icon with skulls on it and it started a whole skull theme off with my bike. I didn't end up buying the helmet, went for something a little more discrete, but the skull idea stuck. I am only just starting on the project but I had to laugh when i saw that you had done exactly what I had planned on doing myself. After all my searching for a skull design the only one I really liked was the punisher. I am looking forward to the day I can post my bike here, I just hope I can do yours justice

To be continued....

Looks like early Gixxer 18's...

Man that fairing is sweet dude..im insanely jealous... If you ever come across another, let me know please...do they make one that would be similar and fit a GS11 or 1000??

ACtually, in looking at thier website, it seems like just about any of them can be made to fit a GS...they have them for honduhs and old yammies still...still using double tube baskets...Could do some bracket mods and get it to fit, but at 900 bucks, it might have to wait a little bit...Killer sport/tour set up tho...

This particular fairing and mounts had been fitted to an 83 CB-1100F before I got it.
The mounting bracket clamps to the steering head and 2 more L brackets hold the lowers.

Thanks for the nice compliments everyone. I'm glad some people can get with the custom side of old bikes. Great to see so many different ways to 'individualize' your ride. Beaver, I know that helmet..... Tried it on a couple of times.

Funny thing is, you can't swing a dead cat at a bike night without hitting a bike with either skulls or flames or both. I was really struggling with being too cliche', and with 'fitting in', which I definitely wasn't looking to do. Maybe have some elements, but still achieve a slightly original look.

Personally, I chose The Punisher because I like the comic book character. "It's not Revenge, it's Punishment.". If I can find a S.W.A.T. vest to wear when I ride, I'll be all set!

Thanks guys.

Exhaust is a kerker header. I lost the pipe in Mexico, so I had a universal rice-rocket muffler welded on at the local muffler shop (dude also bent up the midpipe for me). I asked him to follow the angle of the subframe. I'd like to find a kerker pipe...

JimBunt1: Nice Pichler bike; still a question on those wheels: 18" gixxers, or is the front a 19"?
Dignan: nice 2-valve 750.

[badbrown]

Dude, the 750 looks badder than ever. Great ideas for the lines tank and cowl.
