    Thanks to Lee for the parts here on the board we might be able to resurrect this one. I was able to round up some decent bodywork for now at least to make it look like a GS again.

      I have so many parts from my previous build it made this one a no brainer, I even rounded up a decent period correct Yoshi for it..

          Sweet......nice finds for sure....

          hey you wouldn't happen to have a rear tail lens, that would fit my 83 750, since you have so many that just might ? fit the bill.....

              I'm looking forward to this one - your other 700 build is SPECTACULAR!

              Something about that rear wheel just doesn't look quite right.....

                  Hi Joe - I just noticed you posted a picture of your next project with the parts from my donor bike. Kinda neat to see parts from Oregon end up on a bike all the way down in Texas. Good luck with the build!

                    Thanks Lee!

                    All of your parts will be going to good use soon.
