Tank is original...including the pre-existing dent.

Don't mind me asking or anything, building a 81 of this atm,
How did you come up with that rear fender? If I may? Was it your own design?
;D If this is the potential my bike has, I'm all in.

Actually, all I did was cut the rear section even with the end of the original size of the seat then trimmed the seat to accept the stock rear tail section to meet up with the end of the trimmed frame. I did slightly re-shape the rear of the seat foam to meet up with the tail piece better. So, all the parts used were original, just re-used. If your bike is an '81 GS your tail section is completely different than mine.

Putting boot to ass since 1967!
Johan, that is a gorgeous 450! Well done mate!
Quick question for you....how's the riding position with the rearsets on the passenger mount like that? I'm working on the same chassis at the moment and I'm bouncing back and forth between fabricatiing something or just taking the simpler (and very clean) route and mounting them back there. My worry is...I'm 6'1" with a 34" inseam......
regardless.....fookin' A what a pretty bike you have!
