    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.

Toadstool Food, like the jockey shifter on your new project. I'd like to do that on my next project bike.
 
My 1100 shaftie. Treats me well after all these years.

Thank you sir, now I know what to do with one of my gs1100g. That is a good lookin clean bike.

Thanks Bill. It looks good, but not my favorite thing. The geometry is way off. If you do it, fab up a center pivot point so the throw a few inches instead of a few feet. A foot clutch would also be preferable. The suicide clutch makes it way too difficult to start and stop.
 
Actually, not knocking the effort, but that looks pretty damn dangerous. Cut down to a single backbone with a hard strut and no other swingarm bracing? That thing is going to fold like a taco i fear. :confused:
Guy's have been doin this kind of thing ever since shafty's came out. I have a honda shafty I hardtailed just like this and absolutely NO problems dude! Until you know for sure, why make assumptions?

You are really just Taunting us :(

First you don't post a picture with a matching red fender for months, and then when you finally do, it is with the Hindle on the opposite side :rolleyes:

Cant we get both?

BTW, I will have a 86-88 GSXR 1100 Hindle pretty soon. I got the last one :D

I'll be sure to post pictures :-&


Finally got around to snapping a pic of the bike with the fender painted red. A few of you ragged on me for it being blue so here it is repainted.

WOW, that looks great Dan! Love the carbs. :rolleyes:

Are you bringing her up for the rally?

That's the plan yes... Might have a fairing change by then.. I am toying with the idea of a Maier GS1000S replica style thing. Just bought one to try it out.

If I do that then the Givi currently fitted might go on the skunk for the ride.

Got to fit the new gaugeset & some work on the skunk to do too but should all be ready in time so both bikes should be coming...

Dan :)

I'll pull it out later and take a shot.

Congrats on the Hindle. I wonder if they have any of the 750 pipes left? Might need to look into it for the slabbie.
 
It isn't really all that custom, but it is mine. Did the paint and exhaust mod/ carb tuning. Love the new sound of the takeaway HD pipes.

Since you've got a pair of Katana's there, I'll go ahead and take that 84 off your hands, you know, to spare you the shame of being called a Katana hog. :D I do like the pop-ups, probably has something to do with me being raised in the 80's. Anyone have any idea of many of them are floating around?
