Hey, I just wanted to post this article about some jacka** in my area driving recklessly on his stolen dirtbike while taunting the local cops...It gives us law-abiding motorcyclist a bad image, but I'm glad the police caught him after 4 months of being on the loose... PJ...

Haha, thanks for all your responses...I'm gonna go ahead and "restore" it, but with custom touches. I figure the money I would be spending to "cafe" my bike would just go to the motor itself... PJ

Hey Guys, Its been a while since I posted, but I'm stuck right now on my 1977 GS 750 "build". Right now I have everything stripped down to just a rolling frame. I've been debating for awhile whether or not I want to create a cafe/brat bike or just do a "restoration" on my bike. I've always...

Hey, I just watched this short video about this awesome motorcycle shop in Vancouver called Motomethod...Basically you pay a 100 dollars a year to have access to the shop and rent space to work on your own project. All the tools in the shop are free for any member to use and the shop owners can...

Nice idea!!! I was thinking about using an old skateboard for my bike,lol...

That is for sure Hillsy...The money I set aside for my build actually includes the cost of tools as well,lol...

Thanks for all the replies...I think I will go with the Harbor Freight grinder to save money...

Hey Guys, I just wanted to ask the forums about their opinions on the different angle grinders in the market. Anyways, I had my eye on a Dewalt 4.5 inch grinder on Amazon for about 50 bucks http://www.amazon.com/DEWALT-D28110-2-Inch-Small-Grinder/dp/B000BM6BMS/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top I was...

FYI, I emailed Lo-Ko about their powder coating services. They charge about $200 to blast and powder a frame and about $15 to blast and coat smaller pieces (depending on the color, I'm guessing black is the cheapest). Expect 1 to 1.5 week turnaround time...I hope that info helped out...

From what I remember, the PO told me that the mags were aftermarket or off some other bike (I don't remember of hand). I've been hearing they were worth alot of money to the right buyer. The funny things was, I really hated these mags at first and preferred the stock spoke wheels which I also...

Re: "Oh no!!! Not another GS 750 project!!!" I finally decided to revive this project... ;D Here is the stripped down version...

That is awesome!!! I saw the trailer on Youtube and made me want to buy it...Unfortunately they don't sell it here in the US yet :( ...Anyways, it was kind of difficult understanding what they are saying because of that heavy accent...I watched a Guy Martin race in which he was commenting on...

Hey Westley, I would like to be the first person to welcome you to DTT and thank you for your service!!! I really look forward to your build and there will definitely be plenty of guys on our forums that will help you out!!! Unfortunately I can't help out since I have a Suzuki,lol...But I will...

Re: !977 GS750 Cafe Build Good luck RadioPaul!!! I got a 77 GS750 myself, but I've halted any work on it until I figure out my financial situation...Look forward to your work and I hope I can get my project going as well!!! PJ

Thanks! Yeah I was looking at that GS 850g tank on ebay and it is probably the setup I'm going to go with...

Hey All, This may sound like a stupid question, but from your own experiences, what is the biggest and most "slender" looking stock tank? I'm only asking because I want to replace the tank on my 77' Suzuki GS 750 (which is pretty bulky) with something that is slender, but holds about 4...

Thank you Frogman!!!

Not to hijack this thread, but can you guys describe how you modded that radio shack rectifier for your motorcycles? This is by far the cheapest rectifier I have seen. I've only seen those $100 rectifiers that are specifically made for motorcycles, but this mod can be a great money saver. FYI...

I haven't ordered from this website yet, but looks like they have some nice jackets for sale here for really cheap...I hope this helps! PJ
