Performance/Tuning/Mods

I have a 1979 GS1000L. the frame is the same as the other pre 80 GS1000's from my understanding, and this one is chain drive.

Motor seems good, i ultrasonic cleaned and rebuilt the whole carb set.

The mods are not "performance" oriented. but handling/aesthetic really.(outside of carb jetting and exhaust) the goal is a usable semi versatile sporty feeling retro styled bike i can use pretty much anywhere road going. tires planned are Dunlop Mutant of the CBR/GSX-R sizing that has best...
