1979 GS1000SN Wes Cooley Replica. Frame # GS1000-524911 Engine # GS1000-139288 If anybody has some spare time, I'd appreciate the information on production.
Ok, Its on the lift and I've taken some inventory. It's not good. I've started with much better. But, with the lack of production of this particular bike, it's going to be rough. Even rougher than the Eddie Lawson I just finished.
First the Good:
Its real. I've heard many different #'s of production maybe under 600.
Good Title
Its mostly all there. Including the Original Exhaust.
There are several models in which part interchange is possible.
Engine turns over.
There is information out there, mostly here. Thats good...
The BAD.
List is very LONG. I'll do the short version.
This bike was previously butchered. It had a complete set of Vetter fron and rear hardware. Brown hard luggage. Some people shouldn't own motorcycles....
Headlight Assembly = Gone
Gauge Bezel = Cut up
Fuel Tank = Junk
Needs Everything. Disassembled, cleaned, overhauled, rebuilt, painted, polished, rechromed etc. Now for the pics:
And the best. The key fob that came with it.....
Wish me luck.
On an unrelated topic. I took the KZ1000R1 Eddie Lawson Replica to its first show last weekend. About 80 bikes. Tons of leather, tassles and chrome. Couple of cool Ducati's The ELR won "Best Stock" and "Best in Show"
