1981 GS750 not sure build

[Erki]

To start the day off today I was pretty excited when my clip ons arrived in the mail. BUT it turned out they sent me two of the same clamps. They come in two pieces per side. The clamp that goes on the fork tube and a 7/8 bar that goes into the clamp as well. The clamp is machined with a slight drop angle for the bar, and being I got two of the same for the left side. It makes the angle go up on the right side. or if I get it to drop it flips the bar on the closer side of the fork tube. Anyway I emailed them and waiting for a reply.





So I sanded and painted my undertail and put the wiring back in roughly.





Bike can sit a bit lower now in the front since I can slide the tubes through a bit.





Hopefully Sanding the rest Thursday and depending on if I have paint by then I may start putting some white on....

That's as funny as I'm sure it is annoying about getting two same side clip-ons.

No need to get new ones... just lean to the left all the time when riding.

Yeah its got a gangsta feel.

Looks like I'll be getting a replacement one on the way real soon.

Looking good. The new shocks look much better. I know you like drag bars, but I think apes look great on a bobber. Will be watching.

193 posts later I check back in on your bobber build... WOW! Amazing job and fab skills! This it one of my favorite build threads. Nice pictures and explanations.


I still recommend apes

Looks really nice.

Nice! Looks like she's coming along nicely. Clear coat on there as well or just the white?

[Erki]

Cleared, will get sanded down today and do some pinstriping on it this weekend hopefully. Then cleared again and polished if needed.

Have I mentioned my jealousy before if not JEALOUS... you my friend have mad skills. I would love to see the sparkle on that tanke in the sunlight with that gold pearl overcoat.

That looks very, VERY cool! Sucks about the snow though. (I'm kinda looking forward to a big dump of snow, I got a snow blower for Christmas this year and haven't had a chance to use it.)

Really though, I love everything about your bike. It has an awesome stance.
