GS650 custom chop/bob whatever

How does it run with those pod filters? Did you use a Dynojet kit or sort it through yourself?

It runs strong. I did use a Dynojet kit. It made it alot easier and kind of took the guess work out. Right now they are the emgo pods but I'm probably going to upgrade to the K&N pods.

Interesting bike. Just one question - how does the tach and speedo fall into the 'not important' category?

The words 'speeding ticket' come to mind.

I actually had a mini speedo and tach on the bike when I first got it running. I really didn't look at the speedo when I was riding so I decided to get rid of it. Usually I can judge how fast I am going when there is other cars around me. When it's an open road with no cars it is a little bit more difficult. I still have the tach and hook it up when I'm synching the carbs. I just don't leave it on when I'm riding.

Where did you get the barrel key ignition from?

I got it off ebay.

Whatever!!! If you can gauge your speed at all times without a speedo you're a better man than I.

Who are you, Rainman?

Must be!! Because like i said. NEVER had a ticket on a bike with working speedo or not. Thirty years of riding and owned more than 25 bikes..No tickets
