    GS650 Cafe Shafty Build 95% done

    I picked this bike up for free as previous owner wanted to make it in to a bobber and had no clue what he was doing. after removing all the back ally mods like a chain link connecting system for the rear brake to a forward set of pedels I started to strip the bike down. Custom seat intigrated led lights, no air box and lots of other mods I have a quick light shafty. Loads of fun to ride.

          Here, easier to see:







          Hopefully you don't have annual inspections in your state. That tail light is creative, but hardly legal.

              Tail light

              As for the tail light. British Columbia does not have annual inspections. they are super bright. Intigrated turn signals are easily seen. better then the stock.

                      Im real interested in knowing if or how well the bike runs.
                      Have a friend of a friend with a bike that spent lots of money and time making it look good but never could make it run correctly.
                      He sold it running like crap..

                        It runs great did the dyna jet kit with the pods. the pipes are an after market performance pipe of a 2004 triumph thruxton 900 flow is great.

                          Pipes off a 2004 triumph thruxton. Aftermarket. Nice load deep sound.

                              I relocated the battery and electronics under the seat bubble. Went with a sealed battery with smaller dimensions. more cranking power.
