Just wondering how far off the ground the bottom of the frame sits? I'm starting to plan a gs450 chop now and it looks like in order to level the bottom of the frame it will have to sit just under 7 inches off the ground. Is this the case in your build?

The bike looks awesome!
What modifications did you do to the carb for the pods and open exhaust? Did you just increase the main jet to 130 or did you do anything else?

Thanks for the reply, that is where I will start then (130 main jet). I am new to these bikes do you know of a good source to purchase the correct jet from?
Thanks,

got a 550 front rim, couple things to note, you need to use the 450 disc and spacer for it to work. the 450 mag was 25.75lbs of unsprung rotating mass, the 550 with the 450 disc is 22.88lbs. 2.87lbs lost up front
the one on the left is from the 450

changed out the carbs to a fresher set, also changed the O-rings and intake boot bolts from http://www.cycleorings.com/, money well spent (shameless plug).
been looking to do something to this bike over the winter, here are the plans
-448cc to 498cc (maybe depending on my other projects time allotment)
-valve adjustment
-oil change
-fork seals
-brake pads
-SS brake lines

did some stuff today, been meaning to get rid of my old taillight since it was cracked. made a new head light bracket because the old one was an eyesore and the light stuck out to far. added a sissy bar to haul some stuff.
had to cut off and smooth out the spot where the bump was for the screw
