Got my GS 750's

Got it on and it feels much better than the one I had on there.

Found out the fairing is not ABS.Silvered up part of the spare one and put it in acetone to make a slurry.After a week it did nothing.So taking some advice from a friend I tried plastic welding.The holes in it where small so I poured off the acetone from my slurry attempt and used a soldering iron to melt the slivers.It worked great!

I believe you have what's called "progress"... nice work

[SVSooke]

It was really nice to hear from my friend today.Seems he traded his 84 GS750E for a ratty RZ350,to give the guy a better bike.This guy and his father have a spray booth set up.As I'm the guy with 83 750 parts in the area I think I can swing a deal to get access to the booth.That would be really nice!

[Guest]

That sounds like it would be an excellent deal! Parts for time at a booth... that would be very handy indeed!

[SVSooke]

A little more progress

[Guest]

Now your gettin' somewhere!

Is that a well used cat scratching pole I see on the left?

[Tim Tom]

Nice looking plastics! I do like the look of the fully faired 750's, they're sweet. Are you gonna paint the mesh the same champagne color as the body?

Nice progress and of course love the pics!

[Hoosier Daddy]

AWESOME stuff there!!

[SVSooke]

Yes Pete it's very used post,3 cats.
Tim Tom,think the mesh will be satin black.
Thanks Hoosier,Its's just primer buy it's getting there

Had a very nice Saturday with my pal Aaron.Worked on some of his stuff like:


His "new"1100GK.Took the carbs out:

Think you need new boots buddy

Here's the 550 I told you about a while back.He has the covers BTW.The RZ350 behind it is a long term project.Pretty rough,it's been modded with what he thinks are FZ conventional forks and wheels.We got it running but it's not right.Some PO put a non stock carb set up on it.For some reason I still want itHe traded the guy with the spray booth his 84 GS750E for the RZ so he'd have a better bike.BTW I meet him,Asked if I could use the booth.I canSounds great.It's huge,about the size of a 3 car garage.busy getting the bodywork ready
