Post a pic of your latest purchase

78 Suzuki gs1000. Runs, got a title, new tires and she's all there. I think she's too cool to chop up, so I'm going to try to restore and keep original. I'll be doing a slow build through te winter. I've pulled the brakes and doing a complete overhaul. New lines have been ordered.

The guy I got the benelli and rd from had a cool looking 450 twin just like that and two 350 twins, two gilleras, a dt250, two BSA's small motors with bobber looking frames that had the suspensions in the rear axle carriers, a mint cb550 SS with factory exhaust, and three bad ass chrome tanks one was a one year bsa tank.
If anyone is interested in anything he has let me know.
Yeah, I wanted to take it all home!

Beezah Plunger framed bikes and I'd bet all 3 of the chrome tanks are BSA as well.

Got this 89 Honda CB1 a few weeks ago with only 4k miles on it. it's been sitting for a few years so I'm going through everything over winter but I'm dying to ride it.
 
Finally home after 6 weeks on the water... This is my bounty when I got home.

Good get Ronnie. What type of Tarozzi's are those?
They are the low rise, I figured the standard ones wouldn't give me as much freedom especially since I don't know what will work.
 
After a long search the last piece of the puzzle arrived to day. The building in earnest for Bonneville next year can commence. The FedEx man dropped off my Aisin AMR300 supercharger today.

I thought maybe you got a new washing machine motor! :p

Can't wait to see some footage of that in action.
