Post a picture of your custom GS

[Guest]

way cool pete!

Thanks again Driver

That exhaust. explain. very cool!

That exhaust is just fan-frickin-tastic actually... custom made by a local mob here called Tranzac and not only was it made *exactly* how I envisioned it, but it sounds awesome, really really impressed with the work those guys do

It's ceramic coated also which definitely keeps it somewhat cooler on the outside compared to chrome and I like the finish better too, almost like a brushed aluminium.

Dang Pete,
That bike looks awesome!

Thanks mate, must say I'm happy with the end result

Hey Pete....

Those are some really nice photo's.................and the bike looks really good........

Great work....

Yeah borrowed the house mate's fancy camera for those ones. I'm pretty crap at photography but his camera makes anyone's photos look good... haha

Thanks, very happy with her

Followed your build thread,and all the work you did to get the paint just right. Well YOU DID!! Beautiful job.

Thanks mate! I think the paint could do with a touch more polishing, but she looks pretty good in the sun

Absolutely gorgeous Pete.... Those pics really show her off well. CONGRATS!

Thanks again Hoosier! I'd really like to get some more out in the wild rather than the driveway though... soon enough I'm sure

Some pictures of my bike with a few customizations made to it, Its an 82 gs 1100 gl. Im in the process of customizing it a bit more. After I get my next few customizations made, I will post more pictures.

but for now, Im having a hard time locating forward controls for this model. Does anyone have any clues on where to find useable forward controls for this model, preffereably relatively inexpensive. let me know.

Probably about as far as mines gonna go this direction. This winter its getting a cafe/fighter treatment. Mono shock and upgrade front suspension and brakes are first on the list. Money permitting.

An Updated shot of my bike for this thread cuz I like posting pictures.

Gravedigger reborn as a motorcycle

[Toasty]

My first motorcycle, a 1981 GS550L (the dreaded L model I know). It runs strong and the PO kept pretty good mechanical care of it but I don't think it had ever been cleaned. It weeps a little oil which isn't a huge deal but it had never seen degreaser and was caked with dirt, oil and road grime. I've spent the last two weeks on my days off cleaning up the bike.

When I first got her home



Pics from today



The tank is still dented but is no longer peeling and faded, it's a solid color until I get around to fixing it right . Superbike bars and Oury grips replaced the stock stuff, smaller turn signals, repainted some things, rotated the fender back to make it shorter, and other small things.

I have some SS brake lines sitting in the room waiting to be install and the supplies to make fab up a new seat . I'm still deciding on what kind of tail light to go with. That's it for now, it's been a fun project so far.

Lot of imagination shown in the bikes! Keep on tinkering guys!

Its got a few new things now. But here it is!

[Konnick]

79 GS850G. Re-jetted to pods, Cafe racer bars and mirrors. 4 into 1 Vance and Hines Exhaust. All aluminum polished. Blacked out engine. New seat cover. New paint. The whole thing has been taken apart and gone through by a local pro. He also put in a new clutch. Clear fuel lines so that you can see the fuel running through them. Blacked the wheels.
