    SWEET gs650 (that's the plan anyway)

    Damn dude. I hate not being productive. I went to put the new top end in my dirtbike and discovered that I have a broken valve shim bucket. Shit. Something else for me to do. But, thanks to my badass brother, the wiring is 98% done. All that's left is to make a final battery box and wrap the...

    SWEET gs650 (that's the plan anyway)

    sweet! so the plate bolts up fine then? and all you have to do is widen the hole on the tank itself? I've been busy with my new job and rebuilding the top end on my dirtbike so not much progress has been done. The wiring is about 90% at this point, and I'll find a way to fab up a battery box or...

    SWEET gs650 (that's the plan anyway)

    Sweet dude let me know how it works out. I should be knocking out the rest of the wiring this weekend. It's mostly done. Then I'll be attaching the seat pan and attempting to paint it all and make it all clean. Then I'll ride the piss out of it! Doing little things like bars and rear sets along...

    Just dropped 250 bucks on my dirtbike. You know how girls get one someone else gets more attention: jealous. The 250 needs a top end and sprockets. Oh well, it's gotta get done right?

    SWEET gs650 (that's the plan anyway)

    Got it all bolted onto the tray and set in place. Gotta take back the fucking rivet gun i JUST bought cuz the damn thing already broke. Oh well, money back in my pocket. Still need to clean up the rest of the wiring and make a battery box, but it's all seeming to come together like it should. I...

    SWEET gs650 (that's the plan anyway)

    OK, so I just got the new threaded insert rivet gun today, so we should be able to finish up all of the electrical relocation for tonight. I'll still need to make a battery box, but It's fine for the time being. I also thought of a way to attach a license plate bracket onto the back. It SHOULD...

    Also, Jonny, did that petcock deal from DimeCity work for you? The weather has cooled off here and my petcock isnt leaking anymore. haha

    Damn its been a minute since I got to post in here. Got the tray put into place today and half way through mounting the electronics, the rivet-insert gun broke =( so we'll knock it out tomorrow. Headed in the right direction. And should I brace that end up? ^^

    SWEET gs650 (that's the plan anyway)

    I haven't gotten to get much done this weekend :-\ been busy with a little bit of everything. Got most of it all figured out though, it's just a matter of doing it. I'm confident that I can get it complete in one day if my brother and I can put a whole day of work together.

    SWEET gs650 (that's the plan anyway)

    Damn, lookin at it, it looks like that DCC link is pretty much perfect! I'll go measure my petcock spacing tomorrow to make sure, but if it's right, I'll be snaggin these up. I'm enlisting the help of my brother tomorrow to try and relocate all of the wiring onto the panel I made today. Should...

    SWEET gs650 (that's the plan anyway)

    Haha no worries dude. I was actually thinking of fabricating my own plate, just like the one you posted up. But if I can buy one and the add a petcock, then shoot, I'm savin time! And time is money!

    SWEET gs650 (that's the plan anyway)

    Mine are in pretty good shape, so they'll do for now. And I was thinking about cutting apart the stock seat for it, but I figured I could sell it easier =)

    SWEET gs650 (that's the plan anyway)

    I was going to just go with the stock rear sets for now and maybe in the future move the pegs back to where the passenger pegs are and just re route the shifter and brake linkage. That will come with handlebar changes though. This bike is meant to be a daily rider. I just started tackling the...

    SWEET gs650 (that's the plan anyway)

    Ha, alrighty! If it does, I'm ordering it tomorrow and solving all these damn hassles! FYI, for your electronics tray, a street sign fits inbetween the frame damn-near perfectly ;)

    Sweet dude! And you're sure it will fit in the stock mounts on my tank?

    SWEET gs650 (that's the plan anyway)

    So I've got a good idea of what I'll be trying to get done to it this weekend as far as getting the rear cowling mounted. But, it looks like I'll need to get a rebuild kit for the petcock because the damn thing keeps leaking on me! I really wish they never went with the vacuum petcock. But, she...
