Thanks and some pics of our GS1000S replica resto mod

[Eddie Sisneros]

just wanted to say thanks for the resource that we used many times during this build most noteably for paint codes.

here are some pics of the GS1000S replica resto mod me and my good friend and i colaborated on.

we have individually done a katana,z1 and cb900f. we had never seen a gs1000s so we decided to pool resources and do one.

we will do a proper shoot at some point but phone pics will have to do for now.

the result first and a few build pics as you go down.

Beautiful bike, Eddie.
I bet the big brakes and beefy forks are a pleasure to use.
Any chance of a clip so we can hear the music from the pipe?

took us roughly 6 months of occasional work. most of the time was spent waiting on the paint. the paint/decals were gonna make the whole deal so we were patient.

like every thing either of us build im sure it will get sold at some point.for now we are gonna ride it occasionally. for me especially i enjoy the build as much if not more than riding.

I think i need a drool bucket.... That would be one of the very few bikes that i would trade my 750 for.

Looks & sounds great. Mind if I ask a question about the exhaust? What exhaust exactly do you start with and what was the process to transform into what we see now? More details the better

its a new V&H header,delkavic mid pipe that we modded via shortening and alterring the bend.

the muffler is a yosh r55 that we called a friend at yosh and told him what size inlet we needed.no idea of actual application its for.
