GS1100E project

progress

after a little more measuring it works out that the inner race from the GS fits perfectly into the race for the gsxr so i am going to weld the two together,use the gs pivot bolt and spacer with the gsxr bearings and it looks like it will work.I ended up grinding the 3mm off the sides of the swingarm.We got 3 inches of snow today so i wont be riding it any time too soon.thanks for the advice

rear susp in minus shock mounted carbon fiber front fender and ground off all uneccesary brackets waiting for rear sets,upper triple,bars and headlight bracket all on order. it,s gettin there

rear shock mount

Finished my rear shock mount yesterday.Little bit different than what i,ve seen but i think it should be plenty strong. Welded on some steering stops to allow about 1/8 clearance to the tank.

Looks like a very sturdy mount. Nice job. I'm looking forward to this one; great bike! Also, nice collection you've got there. I'm considering a big-bore Speed Triple, and I've had 3 CB400F SSs in my day...one even had some Yosh stuff in the motor.
Keeeeeeeep on postin'!

Great looking bike, nice work! Please post a few more pics when she's done, I'm sure there are many like me who would really like a better look.

just got the windscreen but if the size is any indication it appears it will offer about the same protection as my hayabusa sheild,which pretty much blasts you right in the chest unless your tucked in

Ogri,

Can we see some close ups of how you mounted the F-16. Is it just two bolts or are there 2 more mounts? I'm going with this style fairing for my GSXR; it is a little larger off a Ducati. If you go to my Siggy and look at

offset sprocket

I know i have seen it on the forum but cant find it.Who is the supplier for the offset front sprocket ,I have .700 offset from front to rear offset with the rear sprocket flipped so with a 5/8 offset sprocket i will be pretty close. I can gain about 2mm by trimming the inside bearing spacer . It would be so much easier if i could get an offset rear sprocket but i dont see any on the web. Anybody have an idea where i might find one

Ha! If I can ever get it done.

I still have so much to do and no money or time. I have the paint purchased but I need a booth and some time.
I have the carbs, but need manifolds and a fuel cut-off to get it running.

I'm close, but.....

I got my offset sprocket from Kosman Specialties. http://www.kosman.net/

Call over there and talk to Sandy Kosman. He'll hook you up with what you need.

To my knowledge, no one makes an offset REAR sprocket. Kosman, PMFR & other drag race companies make offset FRONT sprockets but not rears. Ray.
