Interesting as to how the 450's came with 4-valve heads and WE got them in the States with the 2-valve. I wonder if the 4-valve head could be grafted to the '90's GS500?

Hey Wassa, haven't been on in ages and missed this! Flat tracker GSX400 hey? Cool! I'd like to see that!
Not sure if you saw the update but there's a March 8th ride heading south if you want to join us.
Edit: I just realised you have the factory option luggage rack!!!!!!! Wanna part with it? I know I have my home made one but I still wouldn't mind the stock one...Comment

I just took mine out springbrook and back past Hinze this morning.
Got a bit wet.
Is it just seat and gauges you are chasing?
I have parts, but probably don't want to get rid of anything you need.Comment

Let me know when you are ready for a ride one day. Would love to have another G next to mine to see how she's running.
