Morning all,
Michelle here... I own several bikes, one of the older ones being a '76 Suzuki GT750. I purchased it from a friend of mine who was the second owner and hadn't done much with it. It was quite a mess when I got it, held together by duct tape, wire, etc., complete with a mismatched, rotted out seat and a rusted sissy bar. It's come a long way, but I have always wanted to give it the "cafe racer" look.
Tomorrow, 5/1, will be its third trip in the Southern WI "Slimey Crud Run". (That is if I get it ready in time.) The Slimey Crud Run is known for vintage and exotic bikes, but if the weather is nice the Harleys come out of the garages to join us.
Here are some pics, from first purchased to now:
Me, caught by a photographer at the Slimey Crud Run early last year. It was COLD, and I was really missing the heated grips of my other bikes:
Slimey Crud Run late last year:
So.. work in progress, it only gets ridden a couple times a year... deserves more.
