some pics of my junk, 81 gs450

are those gunna get enough cool air to not burn up inside that?

connected a switch temporarily instead of a keyed ignition, so its easier to work on for the next few months

here is what I got accomplished today, gonna make a battery mount and hopefully finish the wiring this weekend


going to use a hinge and the old piece to keep it closed

lots of useless stuff

Newb question: Where is the cdi/rectifier/electronic bits on that red one? I love it by the way. I have the same bike, but I went in a diff direction with it.

its cool, I'm a newb too, check my join date. I mounted it vertical behind the battery, you can see it in the 4th pic, where I'm sitting on it

not bad, I'm looking for something with a tube tunnel, since I now have a single backbone

here's a different view and it's been repainted a gloss black since I took the pic.
BTW, I know its a big world, but I have an old friend that trains SAR in San Diego b y the name of John Molloy. He's got about 18 years in by now. Just wonder if you ever crossed paths.

Bad ass idea, i like it.

drilled some holes and made the frame tabs




I still have to cap the right side and make the edges around the battery, although I'm thinking of mounting all of the electronics in it with a hinged top and mounting the battery low behind the engine since its so heavy. I'll figure it out on the weekend I guess

Sounds like fun! I'm dying to go somewhere, stuck on I&I duty right now so I can't deploy for another 2 years.

I&I duty anywhere is better than oki for 2 years.

here is what I did today, since I got out of work at 3

since I'm a firefighter, I thought it would be appropriate


welded some tabs on (old bed frame)

jmchambers83, this should help you decide to chop it up
turn the volume up and put it on full screen

Rich,
I like what your doing with the hardtail, I've really been thinking about doing something along those lines with my gs750 this winter. I noticed you had vet plates along with the "Dick" plate. What service you in? I'm up here in MA with the USMC.

thanks,.

marine corps also, Were everywhere like roaches. I came off active duty on june 28th, I was on a south pac float with special purpose MAGTF 24 in peru. now back in the reserves

Does the back of your license plate say "D I C K"? That's crazy.
