SOLD.

Bump!!

Decided to sell her, to finance a new project for my wife and I. Details here: http://www.dotheton.com/forum/index.php?topic=49535.new#new

Keeping it fresh.....

This is a running and ride-able bike, and is currently tagged. What it is: I've decided to sell my 81 GS450, done with a Cafe inspiration, but not strict adherence to the style. It has 12,xxx original miles (still being ridden, so it will increase). The engine is 100% stock, and runs like a...

Thanks!! :)

Adding some final touches..... May still paint the wheels and engine side covers.

Re: GS450 "Sport" - Success! Awesome man, congrats!!

Here's a good pic of the color for Carpy:

Sure, I'd love to see it. Thanks!!

Thanks!! I seldom think to take pictures when I'm working on something. :-[ I get my mind set on what I'm doing and typically don't stop for anything until I'm done. But I'll try to explain what I did. For the coils, I used a bracket like you did over the backbone, and secured the coils to...

Thanks!! It really pops in the sun. The clear I used also has a subtle flake to it.

Nice looking TJ!!

Thanks!! :D

Thanks for the compliments!! I think what I'll do is make a T like Rich had done, bolt it to the stock rear tank mounts, and bend the end of it down so it fits flush up against the rear mount on the tank. Then drill a hole in the bent part of the T, and bolt it and the tank together.

Thanks!! Piece of cake, took me about 2 hours. I had to cut the stock T tank mounts off, and the stock coil mounts. I used a U bracket to hang the coils from the backbone. The T frame has provisions for the front E tank mounts, since both models used the same basic frame. Suzuki used little...
