[solo suzuki]

just put new sprockets and chain on this month, ordered a black DID 530vm but there was a gold one in the box.
feel like a pimp! 8) ...not so bad really!

 

[Billy Ricks]

Enjoy it Claude. Your bike looks better than ever.

I'll say it again, that is one of the nicest, most tastely done GS1100's I have ever seen.

I like the gold chains, have one on the Bandit, its grown on me.

Ride On, Ed.

Incredible man. So clean. Do you know off hand if '82 GS1100 body parts and fuel tank will fit on an '80 GS1100 frame?

 

[Arion]

Ooooh and where did you get those black headers?

I do. Unfortunately they won't without a lot of modification. The frames are the same basic geometry, but the rear tank mounts are different, the seat mounts differently, the side panels mount differently and the rear cowl mounts differently.

 

[solo suzuki]

Woah!
thanks everyone for all the positive feedback! \\/

i'm getting used to the bling factor, i think the next step would be to install a chandelier in the garage. :-D

 

[solo suzuki]

Ooooh and where did you get those black headers?

the headers are from MAC and have a ceramic coating 8)

 

[satchmo]

Nice look!

Where did you get the seat for that?

 

[solo suzuki]

Nice look!

Where did you get the seat for that?

i had the original seat reuphostered at a shop i've had crazy chairs done in the past. made a cardboard dummy of what i wanted and voila! :?

Thanks man. That does suck 'cause I really like the way that body looks. So now let me ask would a '80 GS1100 engine fit nicely in an '82 GS1100 frame? I just got this bike and I have SO much work to do. Just trying to get an understanding of compatibility issues with other years/makes. Thanks!

Now that you can do with no issue. The motors are externally the same between those years, and the motor mounts are identical, so there is some good news.
