    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.

Hello everyone! I have finished all of my mechanical work and finally have the bike running like a dream. Now, I'm just working on the cosmetic portion. I painted yesterday and just wanted to show the work done so far. I have a whole lot of new parts on the way. Handlebars will be here saturday. I don't see a lot of the silver color. (sorry about the messy garage)
 
A clean garage is a sign of a finished GS. We wouldn't want that!

Good luck and keep the pictures coming!

looks good, is that silver or a primer? I just primed my project 1100e yesterday. one thing i did was fill in where the suzuki emblems would have went on the gas tank. if your not gonna put the emblems back on it would probably look better if you filled them in too:clap:

edit: your rear shock doesnt look too healthy. I'll post some pics of what i did to my tank when i get my new exhaust mounted, i dont want any teaser pics leaking out just yet.
