Hey all, sent here from Hoosier Daddy. I have a 79' GS 1000 that for the past four years I've been "building" a cafe. Collecting parts, made my seat pan. Cut tabs and rebuilt engine. That pretty much sums the project up. Im 29 from Holland Ohio, I'm married with two kids and a certified automotive technician. Hope to get more solid ideas on where im gonna go with my bike and hope to get some reassuring confidence that I'll actually finish my project lol.

Welcome to the board. I'm originally from Toledo, and my grandparents used to live in Holland. I now live in central VA. And don't worry how long it takes. I have two projects now in my garage that don't see to much activity. I just go out and work on them when I can. This board has a lot of talented builders, and I've already got some good info and ideas that I plan on using in my builds.
