    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.

Over bored, port and polish ran better then it looked, until I burnt it out for I was young and Dumb. Then made more "customizations" that made it look worse (won't be posting those pics).

I'll get another, some day!

Ese92, looks like good start, what is the end result? I think the rear needs a bit of attention, different seat pan with rear cowl, shorten rear fender so its closer to the seat area, current seat takes away from the lines, many different cafe style seat pans out there. Keep it up.

Thank you! Yes the seat and the rear end are the next move. That seat on my bike is definitely the wrong one for that model. Im Looking at a couple seats on dimecitycycles with a new pan, and i might either remove, or shorten the rear fender and do a smaller brake light. Just made some number plates to cover my sides of the battery! Will post new pictures later on this year hopefully.
 
Sup, fellas?

Been awhile, but I cleaned up the bike with yet another tank seat combo.

Without a doubt my favorite Mario, one sick beast! Because it's a 1100G? I dunno, probably.
I like the tank and headlight paint colors particularly, and the seat looks comfy.
Looks like you used salvaged foot setbacks, like to know what from?

Thanks! The seat is pretty comfy. Haven't gotten around to installing the rear pegs yet. I might change the seat into a solo seat. The rearsets came off a early 2000s Hayabusa that apparently was being parted out on Craigslist. I still need to cut and paint the front fender and make new side panels. I will be moving the electronics on the left side of the battery first, as some of it sticks out a little further than I'd like and I want to make the new panels as close as possible to the frame. Also considering painting the header wrap.
 
I thought of Suzuki when I saw those foot pegs, they resemble those on a 1990s GSXF Katana.
I'd recommend the bar end weights from a Katana or a Hayabusa because they are the biggest I've seen.
I want to put endwights on my Katana project because my clip-ons are made of aluminum and vibrate like a tuning fork.
I wanna put em on my 1100G too, as I'm using a Drag bar on that.
