    Gs 750 e with a twist (oil cooled 1200)

    I am on a few forums , I am a suzuki man through and through had lots over the years,

    I have wanted a gs 1000e , but here in the uk they are getting harder to find , as we have poor weather, lots of rusty bikes and petrol tanks are getting very very expensive .

    So one day searching google images I found a gs 750 with bandit 1200 engine and gs1000e headlight fairing, uuuummmmm a plan was hatched

    So thats the idea I will up date pics when on my pc .

    I have been sourcing parts with ebay and paypal , so I hope I can do the idea justice

        Don't worry about that UK thing, that's not illegal anymore.

              the forks required the caliper mounts shortening by 5mm

                          i had sourced a set of header pipes and link pipe from a forum member , it is a sought after full stainless 4-2-1 micron that is no longer in production , these allow the engine to retain its low and midrange power , rather than just allow top end performance ,

                              the frame needs a bit of a tweek as these swingarms a very wide but i should save on not having to mono shock the frame as that was the first idea
