    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • 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.

It's an 83 GS450gad.
Forks are 4 in over.
Shocks lowered it 2 in.
Drag bars with 7 in dog bone risers
Iron Cross sissy bar
Suicide shifter (it's a 2 speed auto tranny) ;-)
I am waiting on the finished sheet metal/plastic
I'll probably go with straight pipes when I get to that point.
It's been a fun project....

I know the feeling. :roll: I'm chopping the mufflers off my ratbike and bodging on some punched out harley cans this weekend.
It should be awesome.

:D

To be honest when I read this.....I was.....apprehensive.
Then I saw the pictures and really like it.
It's very cool and very well done.

The suicide shifter is a nice touch.
What color(s)?
The "other" chopper looks great.
I haven't ridden a chopper in years, but love the look.
Nice job.
Let us know when it's done.
 
I'm leaning towards a light red with Chop Screwy in white (in oriental font) on the tank and just CS on the side covers.
 
Cool project.

But......no front brake? Is that rear drum enough stopping power to be safe?
 
80 gs 1000e,

If the rear brake isn't enough to be safe I'll put the front back on.

It's not my primary ride. I plan on riding it along side my wife who also has a stock GS450 auto tranny.

She is a 35 to 45 mph kinda rider so it should be Okay.
