All of my previously posted pictures have been lost due to the failure of my last image hosting site. So here are pictures of my 82 GS850G again, but more updated pictures now that the bike is finished.

Here is my 750L, started of bone stock at the end of last summer and now looks like this. Just needs some new rear suspension and she is done. Cheers!

I''m not generally a big fan of the "L" series, but this one looks pretty cool! Nice job!

Yesterday I added a grab bar to my 1979 GS750E. The grab bar was sourced from a 1980 GS750 that I purchased from fellow GS member "Natan". The seat pan on my '79 wasn't originally intended for a grab bar, and needed some holes drilled, and some creative use of an old leather belt to make it work. I sure like the way it looks better than the old luggage rack that was mounted back there before. If I ever need the luggage rack for a trip, I can always put it back on.

Since acquiring the bike in April, I've swapped out the handlebars, added some black paint to the motor and headers, and now have added the grab bar. I've also got some new black turn signals coming, and will likely change out the mirrors too. Next up is to add raised white letters on the tires, then I'll pretty much be done with any custom changes, unless I decide to take the leap and change the original paint.

The latest set of mods have been installed. (Painted Upper triple tree and handle bar clamps, new speedo & tach, and headlight visor)

The turn signal wiring through me for a loop, but I ordered a Diode Kit from Amazon and will be installing it soon.

No more mods (for now).... Time to ride......

What model master cylinder is that?, I have clubman bars ae well and I don't like the way the factory GS750 E 1980 rectagular cylinder site at the angle. Its worked fine though.

Its a bunch of vinyl Obey stickers I used to cover them with then I clear coated them.

 

[Gregory]

That is a neat idea. I am such an old fogy I had to Google what OBEY Stickers were.

After reading about the PHENOMENOLOGY at http://www.obeygiant.com/about

To me they conjure up a reaction just the opposite of obeying... Pink Floyd's "Another Brick in the Wall"comes to mind and affects me the same way.

 

[Big Rich]

Yep, I'm a fan of the Obey stickers. But Quest, do you need a dust cap for the right side of your front wheel? I'm sure I have one kicking around the garage that I can send your way....

Never realised I was missing one Lol...I should probably put one on there. How much for it to ship to VA?

 

[Big Rich]

I'll pm you.
