best bike for mods

For example
the 81 gs850m because there are several exhausts and you can buy a turbo manifold for it and drop a turbo on it.

I know thos arent true ...

I wanna see pictures of that 850m.

Exhaust systems are so few and far between for us mere mortals with 850G and 850L models.

I kinda like the TURBO idea, too.

Used to own a tricked out GS1000E that ran 10.2 sec on the quater mile.....man I miss that bike

Steve, I know it's probably a pipe dream, but there's not much point in turboing an 850 when they have such low gearing.

oh yeah you like that one? well I will put together a model and show ya.

Personally, I'd start with an 8 valve GS, since I know those bikes best. If you're after performance or phat tires, just remember that you can't change the rear wheel or gearing on a shaftie.

Well...yes ya can, but you better have some spare change for the machine work and the time to put it all together.

Build what you want, just please don't chop up a perfect bike, rather go find one that needs the work anyway. Just my .02

Survivor murderers are frowned upon.

True, true... anything is possible with a machine shop and enough time, money, and explosives.

If we're operating in the dimension where the limits of cash and ordinary materials do not apply, then I'd like to see someone take a dropped FJR1300, bin the fairing, and make a hell-monster naked tourer.

Fantastic bike, but I hate tupperware.

Might I suggest a polished frame for you FJR project?

SOMEDAY.......................I shall head in that direction, as well.

Although this may seem to be an obviously biased opinion, the 16 valve 1100 or 1150 based bike is the way to go. Parts availability out the wazoo, 10 second 1/4 mile performance with no problem, classic styling, GSXR suspension upgrades super easy............what did I miss?
