Not a GS but I'll play along. Winter project. 1980 Honda XL 500s.
Not a fan of Honda's red from that year so went with a custom color.

Returning Visitors
If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.
If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.
Dang! Nice job on that thing!
Pete,
The bike is certainly handles and is more stable than when I got it. I changed to the adjustable Ohlins when I did the GSXR upgrade so hard to sort out the specific improvement for the shock. I have to say that the wheels,tires and brakes make so much of a difference that I would never want to go back to anything less.
Cheers
Jim

I hope you guys don't mind a post featuring SOB, (some other brand).
I bought a 1984 KZ1100R brand new.
Through the years and life experiences the poor bike deteriorated.
Feeling sick about the decay, it was time to give the old girl new life!
Wonderful workmanship and what a great thread. We in the US didn't get the KZ1100R, looks close to a GPZ1100. Fell free to educate.

There must be an interesting story with the After but your BEFORE is simply ausgezeichnet

In a nutshell:
I took part in a 3 hours classic endurance race which only lasted 2:56 h for me.
I was on 2nd when that little mishap occurred and I lost front grip in a 5th gear corner... ouch.
