GL500 Cafe Fighter

Thanks everyone for the comps.

Hey Tin, as far as filter foam at first I used some industrial air filter pads, but it didn't last. It tore a hole in it, since then I've been using a UNI filter around the outside of the stacks.
 
some pics I never posted of the new layout for the foot rests and controls. Pushed them 5" back and 2" up. It's a much more comfortable ride, for sure. I also made a new side stand and removed the mechanics stand.

Not at all, so far everyone whose rode it big and small haven't had any problems. My knees do get a little toasty on hot days, but on cooler days or up in the mountains I don't notice.
 
I love the bike, do you have any pictures of the frame modification to fit the underside of the tank? I'm looking to change to a more narrow tank but know I'm going to run into the ribs on each side of the frame that extend out. I had the same problem with my cb750, but modded the tank instead of the frame.

These are the only two pics I have showing what was removed. Hope it helps.


Cheers
