Gorgeous bike. Thats an interesting front fender setup. It looks like its backwards

Backwards?? not sure what you mean? it is a stock 94 GSXR 1100 fender..

Barry Sheene did ride a GS1000!

He did, however isn't this is a 750?

Who knows?
Do not let the truth ruin a good story I'd say:-\\\

I think he means that it LOOKS backwards, not positing that it IS backwards.

I agree too. The balance of the wheel/fender looks a little awry, and the part covering the rearward portion of the wheel, to my eye, looks like it should point forward. I hadn't noticed that on the '94, but it looks a little off on your 82. Not that it looks bad, just different than the lines I'm used to seeing on the 80s era bikes.

Here's my version, but not for long it might be sold.:dancing:

Hmmm...something to consider...painting the chrome on my "T". (Except the pipes and engine components)

My GS,slightly modified .... worth a post here.

i love this thing man where did u find the frame

 

[slayer61]

My es has a few custom bits on it. It has been an evolution from the day I acquired it years ago. Wheels and swing arm from England. Brakes from The States and England again. I think the next big change will be some updated forks, maybe USD. We'll have to see!

Was a nice day Saturday, all yard work was done spent time with the kids playing street hockey... Decided to take a blast out on the bike, stopped for some ice cream and snapped a picture...

GS450 first build

Hello! This is the GS450 I destroyed the winter of 2011/2012. My mate fooled me into getting a bike and sharing a small garage space with him and eight other morons. I'm satisfied with the result. Especially since fitting the bigger spoked front wheel and an SU carburetor from a mini

/Viggo, Ume? Sweden

Mate that's a good effort, I particularly like the pipes!!

Thank you
Not that it matters THAT much, but how stupid could I be to make the one pipe that has a longer way to travel in the front also have the longer way to travel at the back

Neat design, but where are the ice studs in the tires?

I love the vision you had to route the pipes under the frame like that.

Just had it out for a small spin that day to see if it took "thief air" (directly translated from swedish...) which it did so instead of buying new rubber intakes for 150 dollars I converted it to an SU

I got the intake off a friend who had made it for a Kawasaki 650, but the customer never picked it up. It was a bit too small hence the enourmous amount of ugly welds :lol:. Now there's no sign of thief air and runs smooth as hell.

The vision of the pipes I have to blame the bearded guy in the pic for. He forced me to do it, while I was too scared to destroy the original pipes since I didn't know anything about building motorbikes. I'm glad he did.

 

[Guest]

The bearded guy was right

Interestingly enough when I was getting my pipe made, the guy who made it for me says making slightly different length headers can be a good thing on twin cylinder bikes...
