1977 GS 750 Project Bratstyle

seat looks great...the french seam looks awesome. That's the one thing I couldn't pull of with my DIY sewing...it really finishes it off nicely.
 
really happy with it. more than i wanted to spend but its got memory foam so it will remember my butt.


picked up a shorai battery today. yes expensive but man is it tiny compared to stock. 12v 14amps and 220 cca

Looks great Pilgrim...seeing parts come together and assembly underway makes it that much more difficult to not be able to ride it doesn't it?

Powdercoat looks fantastic.

I went out on a 100mile ride on my GS750 tonight. It did very well considering I've really not done a thing to the motor or carb tuning. I do have a gas leak I have to figure out though...o-ring kit came today so I'll be working on that soon. You're gonna have a blast on this bike.

Alright alright. A little update. Wrapped up the exhaust, got the controls all sorted, put on my new shocks, started welding up the rear hoop and welded in some tabs to mount the seat. Need to fab up the electronic tray under the seat then finish the wiring. Tryin to ride this weekend.

looks awesome...when I look at bikes like this it makes me wish I hadn't put a rear fender on mine...

I guess I'll have to do another brat bike and go a little less refined/stockish on it, I'm loving the stripped down look
 
Appreciate the comments. Took it for a spin around the neighborhood!!! Its alive!!! Still need to tidy up but it runs drives and stopshttps://vimeo.com/138248104
