My GS1000 30'th Anniversary Paint Job

[srsupertrap]

looks like absolute crap.

tell you what, i can see you are in a bind here, what with all these people to impress, i'll trade you bikes, and you can try again and mebby it'll turn out better.

i mean, just to help a buddy out, of course

That would be a great deal but my Mom made swear I could never own a Suzuki larger than a 1000. I wanta keep my promise to my Mom ya know

After shooting the gas tank yesterday I spent the afternoon reassembling the pieces and this is
what she looks like now.



I got the seat up because the clear is still drying, don't want put any marks in it. Stripes lined
up well on this side not so well on the other . . .




I am going to paint the old fork brace so I left it off for now. In the meantime I am using a GS1100 stamped brace

A couple of more pics

Here is where I started this afternoon



I am not sure whether I will install that boat tail trim. I still have not buffed out anything but like
Redirtrider mentioned it should be a lot easier to do on the bike




Left side view: IMO the Z-1R turn signals look better than the round ones.

Griffin,
Thanks for the compliment; I didn't lower the seat yesterday because the gas tank was the last item I clear coated on Saturday.

Nice work mate!

KiwiGS,
Thanks cannot wait to take it for a ride again, I am sure I won't see another coming the other way.

You should be proud man. Truly beautiful work.

russ33,
Thank you, since I don't have a GS1000S like yours so I figured I would take a chance and paint it a little different. The blue looks lighter outside than the garage photos. I will post a picture with the seat down shortly.
