where are you having the side covers made?

Mocked some up out of sheetmetal, and a buddy is going to weld them up and fab up the mounts.

I need to update my pictures but here is my restoration project. I had it running the other day and it sounds beautiful.

I'm sure I said it before Calliway, but I'll say it again... awesome!

Calliway... WOW!

Superb looking bike. And some of you may know, that is the same paint job I wanted to do to my GS450. The red on the headlight ring is a nice touch.

Oh my.... More pics please!

Thats a beautiful bike! Good to see a fellow Albertan here.

Rattle can paint job. Going to redo it this winter, just trying to decide on which color. Getting new side covers made right now.

I still say that's a nice example of a 450.

I've really gotta get mine done so it can be in this thread!

Interesting work, and lots of nice twins on here. Thought I would put up pics of my recent addition




Traded an old cb350 straight across for her. Shes a good ten footer, I traded out the stock bars for a flat set, new clutch handle, otherwise no changes. Winter projects will be complete brake system overhaul, new springs up front, and complete carb service.

That's a real bugger about the SV, but glad to hear you weren't injured in the mishap.

All I can say about the 450 is do it

Not a very flattering pic at all:



1981 450L. My father got it for me when I was 16. Drove it quite a bit, but it's not been started since 2001/2002 or so. I just got a house last april, and wanted to start driving again. Thing is, it needs work and I haven't had the time, so I bought another twin:

'04 SV650S. it was in immaculate condition, and I was keeping it that way. Then about a month ago, while I was stopped at a stopsign, some douchebag in a lifted truck tried to drive over me. I wasn't hurt, but the bike was cracked up a bit. repairable for sure, though. I've currently go the headlight and turn signals ziptied onto the front, and drilled a hole and jammed a bolt into the shifter lever so I could shift.

But I really want to play with the 450 again, so I've got to finish getting the carbs rebuilt, and get some sort of better handlebars on there, and some new tires ordered. I kinda want to go a little-bit cafe with it, but I don't really want to chop too much up.

Took some studio shots at work today...

I want to see more pictures of the twins!

Here's my 1980 Suzuki GS450 before it was sold. I need another one...

But now you have two twins in one...
