[Paul B]

Hi. My dad once bought another bike when i was eight. a big bike with radio and a big windshield, big seat. Ye, you all know how a GS1000G 83 looks like.


we Went on alot of long Cruises threw europe, with me allmost falling asleep at the back, him holding me so i wouldnt end up in the ditch. then he sold it!


few years later he got hold of Another one. but by then i was to old to ride with him. he found it in a woodshed been standing there alone for 7 years, bought it and made it work. and then it never got used. he bought other bikes, and needed the space. so i bought it cheap. less then the front tyre rly.
But i was still Young and didnt wanna ride this big bike. and restless as i am. i had a small plan. makin a cheap makeover.

hmm cant upload more then one image in this post so to be continued in the next post

Ouch!:crushed:

I'm sorry, they just look so ridiculous with the ass end chopped off. Like your mom bought you a tricycle with no rear tires. Idiotic.

I think there are certain bikes that accept that treatment better than others. Like a V-twin.

Any old L comes to mind. They don't have souls so they don't feel the sawzall anyway....

Do they let you ride a bike with open exhaust in Sweden?

 

[Guest]

to.....

that's really weird that it won't run.....

 

[tkent02]

Would have been good if his chainsaw wouldn't have run.

 

[Fjbj40]

That WAS a nice looking bike. Maybe it won't run because it is embarrassed how it looks now

 

[Buffalo Bill]

You were bored? Like suicidal? So you destroyed a cool bike…meh
How long could a person ride a bike like that anyway?
That old full fairing was really cool, way better than a Windjammer.

 

[Vmass]

Wow! I love what you did to that bike. Is that fairing for sale?

 

[tkent02]

HAhahahahahahahahahahahahahah....................

You may as well have cut the bike completely in half.

It's that bad!

The next time you get bored, cut your HANDS off!
