ES Picture Thread

Can't wait to get mine's cosmetics done. One week and counting.

Really wanted a Corbin seat and found one on ebay for $90. Seller did not know what bike it was for since the underside was only labeled Corbin and no model number visible. Great shape but not quite as much as a scoop as others I've seen. After a ride back down to work:



Before:




Kind of on the fence about the look vs. stock.

In your GSXR conversion thread you said you had wanted to move your riding position back a bit. It looks like the Corbin does that.

Nic, your ES is among some of my favorite bikes on the GSR.

Not sure how I missed this thread, glad someone dug it up again.

My photobucket app is not cooperating so I'll have upload from my phone for now and come back later.

Here's my 83 750 that is new to me as of last year, bought it with 5K miles and doubled that this year already. Sorry about the suitcases, this was shot at the airport last month.

Me too - but in the meantime, it's 43F, the snow is melting and the pavement is dry. Let's keep this going!

I've been working on my EFE over the winter and am pretty much finished. The paint needs a little adjusting but that's manageable as the paint work is not yet completed. It's sitting in it's ES trim right now and the white is a couple of shades too bright. That's easily adjusted with a couple more coats of the pearl white I have. I did a white base coat with the pearl white on top and stopped at 2 coats, could probably use 2 more coats. Question though, I'm thinking I should switch the ES fairing mid pieces to blue instead of white, I think it will balance out the looks a bit better. What say you guys? Otherwise I'm real happy with it. When the weather warms up I'll finish up some paint work on the EF fairing panels, apply the GS750EF decals I had made up to right side fairing. It had some road rash and needed refinishing. I kind of like the looks of the ES trim better than the EF even though the EF is not as common. I plan to complete it as the EF but it really doesn't take long to switch between the two.

I'd do the fairing trims in the blue.Now thy look .......odd.Not horrible but they'd look better in blue IMO.I like the white lighter to,looks cleaner than to original colour.
