    I haven't done a GS yet, but I did a KZ1000 with a mono-shock. I hope that you are prepared to fabricate a lot of stuff. The top of the shock will wind up in the same place that your battery wants to be. I also had to deal with some chain spacing issues and I'm running a 180 tire.

        The widest I have heard of is a 180 on a 5.5 17", but I am no expert on this matter.

          Are you doing a restoration project of some kind on a GS? Let everyone see what you are doing by posting the details here.


          this seems wider than most
