How in the world..do you shift that bike..? Do you take your hand off the throttle..?

Maybe there is a gas pedal where the shifter used to be.

It was a cheap E-Bay purchase a couple years ago. I still see them from time to time on there. Was like $10. or something.

Just finished up my 1980 GS750L

 

[MisterCinders]

New look with some appliance paint for the (3d) tank, and a new sheet metal seat pan.

 

[dorkburger]

I like it. The old "S" tags on the tank are a very nice touch.

 

[Guest]

Yeah I like that one... and I think the new pan is a nicer shape than the old one too. Good job!
