    Now... where did you get those velocity stacks? I want some for the 450... with screens like that. Unfortunately I can not find any for the GS500 carbs that are now on there which have a 60mm diameter inlet...
    I can't remember for sure where I got those velocity stacks, Pete. Seems like so long ago. I probably found them on eBay. I do recall only paying about $25 for them, though.

      Cheers Ed, it was a while ago! Still hunting but the only good ones I can find so far are up to $85 each with screens

      I will keep hunting...

      Still enjoying going back a page or two and admiring the S though

              Thanks again for the kind words on the S. It's one of my bikes I'm most proud of, for sure. If it inspires others, then all the better.
