Nice looking bike!
Personally, I would have liked to see this in the BRAT Tracker Scrambler thread, but I am probably biased.
Very nice work.

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.

83 GS850 Bobber What do you guys think
83 GS850 Bobber What do you guys think
Just got this 82 GS850 not to long ago for a trade for my broke down 03 ninja. Painted the tank and rear wheel fender. Next short termtasks will be new header wrap(should i go with the off white or black wrap?), dark brown leather seat, black drag handle bar, and re spray the frame and engine covers. Ignore the red dust on the back, it is from sanding down some filler on the fender

I totally get it... that is awesome work! Very '80's of the future... I like it 
Tell me... what happened with the front frame rails? I assume there's some extra reinforcement over the engine?

Thanks!
I am happy with them. I got the local bike shop to put some nitrogen in for me. they were unequal when I got them but that straightened them right out. I will be ordering another set for my katana.

Man that's neat, good job!
I know I commented in your thread for this, but ill say it again. I love it. The 1150 front really transforms the look.
How do the (awful IMO) 1150 handlebars feel on the 1100?

I think mine use to be black, or dark blue. Not sure as the only picture I have of it before the paint job is in black and white.
I know a couple people that have used CL for a revamp of these shocks with excellent results. https://chrislivengood.net/wp/clmototech/
glad to hear you are happy with yours.

thanks guys!
@DB:
I had some time last year to get used to the bars lol. initially it was like driving a wheelbarrow, but I don't mind them now. but as for the overall look of the bike now I absolutely love it where before I had always been a katana guy and kind of lukewarm on the E and the ES styling.
@Steve:
I do have that guys web page saved and I am considering it for the second set. I started the revamp on the gs at the beginning of summer though and with all the ordering and waiting for parts from china, there was only a month left to ride so I elected not to have these ones worked over.

Hello gsresources community! This is my first post here at this wonderful website. Here's my 82 GS650GL. Lowered front with clip-on on top of the triple tree. (I know a lot of people don't like clip-ons... but i love it.) She has a little charging problem, but I have rick's stator and Shindengen SH775 coming her way! Very excited for this season.

Nice bike, That's a ballsy place to snap a picture. Welcome to GSR. Not sure what route that is but reminds me of the Sumner tunnel.

Thanks isleoman, idk the name of the tunnel but it was on rt93 south through boston. The engine started over heating so I hung out there for a bit to let it cool down a bit. (and a picture of course!) After that I had to lane split until I was through the traffic.
