The solid stock motor is going to be a race motor in the yellow frame. At least the first year.
Nope, the 1230 is going in the L. Call me crazy.

Yup, you're crazy. But we love your type around here. Wish we could clone you and your GS enthusiasm.

Jim (posplayr) painted my tank and side covers. It looks great and will be the ultimate sleeper after I install the 1230 motor.
This is gonna be great!
Also see the nice Christmas preasant also from Jim. Hint, it's made of rubber
Jim's one of the nicest guys I've ever met. Don't let his techno jargon fool ya!

Jim is a hell-of-a-guy with a little kink in him. Hey Bill, I looked and looked and don't ee a rubber hanging anywhere???
GREAT job Jim on the paint

"Jim painted the tank and covers."
Are the pin-stripes also painted?
Looks very, very nice!!!

I did my 81GS750 as well as Bill's stuff in prep for doing a multi color GSXR paint job.

Bill,

You need a second bike. That thing looks killer with the nice Pos paint job and solid stock (I think) engine. Use that thing as your daily driver and put that 1230 engine into something else. What about that yellow monster bike?

He doesnt have room, we would have got this one looking good with all my old ED parts and fresh RED paint. With 15K original miles it is a fresh motor.

HH,
Yea I know I'm a little kinky ; I think it is from the paint fumes .

We need to chip in an make sure Bill has a lifetime supply of wax and rags to keep that baby nice.

Yeah, welding fumes do the same thing too.

If you want to help Bill, just make sure he has a big supply of fresh pistons and MLS gaskets, on the ready.

Hope you both survived the New Year celebrations OK!!

Here are some pics of Kris putting his turbo 1327 back together after having the crank rebuilt.

You guys are allowed WAY too much fun. It makes me sick, in a green, rather longing sort of way.

Nice job gentleman!
