The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

+1 on the yellow accent.
The goldish yellow of the Stinger was cool.

The more I see these bikes, the more I want to get an old 550 and turn it into a on-off road/scrambler...

This isn't the example of bike I wanted to use(still a Zuk) but you get the idea, without all the chrome the black and yellow just POPS!!! After all, yellow does say Suzuki !!

That is one of the nicest 1000's setup I've seen, what front end and swinger did you use, they look like they belong there from the factory! Old Skool and new, without going extreme into the crotchety look.
 
Thank you,
gs1100e swingarm, 1994 gsxr1100 fork, 1991 gsxr1100 wheel with 1988 gsxr750 rotors.
Almost bolt-on, only need to weld new steering fork stops and put an offset front sprocket.The rest is OEM gs-gsxr mix and match
I have a 1990 gsxr1100 conventional fork that i will try this summer, i plan to replace the round gs1000 side covers with triangular gs750 ones.

I'd leave the suspension the way it is, but definitely, side covers with triangular gs750
 
house of kolor black cherry with suzuki stickers?
pearl black, or blue
color will make or break a bike no matter how well or crappy the rest looks
 
Hmmmmm............poll has come in pretty close to how I feel.Euro Skunk and US Skunk 1 point apart with Euro in the lead(9 and 8).Euro blue third(6) and the US C colours tied with 4 each.I hate none of them and they would all look good.One yellow bike is enough thanks.

You're right, it's said that paint is the first thing people see.
 
I'm leaning real hard to the Euro skunk scheme.Thinking I need my favorite colour back in the "stable".As always I reserve the right to change my mind;)
 
Poll is closed and the winner is the Euro skunk at least in my books.That is what my 78 1000 will be getting when the time comes.Thank you to all those who looked and voted.
 
hmm, some nice color schemes, im probably gonna go black on black with my bike, lol, just keep it simple for me, lol
 
Well I'm making it "offical".I will do the 1000C in Red Skunk livery.
 
And I found the red to

With a pearl white "skunk stripe" I'm sure it will look outstanding:D
