Not a GS, but probably the most dramatic before and after project I've ever done for myself anyway..A 1972 Honda XL250.
Stunning!
I bet it's an absolute blast to ride.

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.
Stunning!

Thanks you guys. This bike really is fun to ride..light, torquey, handles great, loud'r than sh:-#t. A friend of mine gave it to me a few years ago because he just didn't ride it anymore. It had sat outside, unused, for 5 years and even with the old crappy gas in it, it still started after 5 kicks..
It's got a 305cc big bore kit and a mild cam. I also swapped a mid 70's CB500 front end on to get the disk brake. The tail is a modified Airtech piece originaly made for a Matchless with a Hayabusa tail light added, clubmans, hand made pipe, CR250 rear shocks, smoothed/molded frame and swing arm then painted. Even though it took several hundred hrs. over the course of 2 yrs. to finish, I've only got about $1,500 into it.
