I suppose it's time I post my build on here this is my first build and any help would be appreciated! I'm going for something like this:
-
Required reading for all forum users!!!
Welcome!
Register to access the full functionality of the GSResources forum. Until you register and activate your account you will not have full forum access, nor will you be able to post or reply to messages.A note to new registrants...
All new forum registrations must be activated via email before you have full access to the forum.A Special Note about Email accounts!
DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.A note to old forum members...
I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.
Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...
-
Returning Visitors
If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. 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.
If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Looks like either a straight drag style or a low superbike style handlebar. Can't offer much help on the welder unless you have a buddy who has one or can make a new buddy that has one 
Agreed they are probably Superbike bars or maybe Daytona.
There are cheaper places than Nickletown but at least they give you all the dimensions.

Since you need a gas tank and don't need an original one, you might want to get this tank from Rick. It's a direct bolt on to your bike. http://www.thegsresources.com/_forum/showthread.php?247954-80-81-1100-750E-fuel-tank-100

You will find the 550 will be to small on the tunnel.
Strate bolt on tanks are gs750/850 (2v) or the gsx (GS 4v) 750/1100

The red an black(scallops, not flames) need the inside derusted and lined. It is cheaper, but will cost more in the long run than the black one.

On rusty tanks use Metal Rescue. Its magic! Doesn't harm paint and will not flash rust. Unless you have holes in tank no liner needed.

A comparison video of Evaporust, Metal Rescue, vinegar and Coke. Evaporust seemed to be the winner.
Another one between the top three chemical rust removers.
