2-Cylinder Photos - Post Yours!

Heres mine! GS 450 tracker standard eng,frame,wheels,the rest is either from various other bikes or fabricated by myself, only trouble is the engine blew the 1st day out so i am now looking to fit a 500 unit, will post again if succesful !!!. Great forum keep up the good work and thanks for everyones help. Nige

Ah Rich...Nice buy....Lol let me know if you part that thing out lol....I want the motor combo....lol jk. Also Ian, mad clean bike you got there too....good to see another 450 owner on here.

That's a nice lookin' S Ian. Looks like the rear mudguard's been shortened also?

The PO hacked lots of plastic up, then changed his mind and glued the pieces back on. Trimmed (or should I say butchered?) parts include the windscreen, chain guard, airbox lid and now the rear mudguard (which I never noticed before). The windscreen has stayed glued in place but the other pieces fell off eventually. I'm looking for a new airbox lid.

The bike is a very nice almost original survivor, but I guess it will be a while before it has any sort of collector value.

Pretty much stock. The previous owner removed some of the white pinstriping tape and airbrushed some black on to emulate the BMW R90 sport model that was popular in the 80s.

Here a pic of my free '82 GS450L before the wreck and new "G" bars. Going to run it without a front fender (since it got a bit bent up in the accident) until I have the funds/time to bob/chop it. Still have to clean the carbs up, rejet, and get someone to make a set of stainless straight pipes

Nothing special. The day I brought her home:



Already put new bars and mirrors on. Over the winter, I plan on stripping the tank to fix some chips/dents and repainting it and the side covers black.

Nice bike! I agree that there's a bit too much chrome on the T. I wish my fenders and chain guard were body color, maybe someday.

I thought I would jump in and add mine. Just bought it in February. It's an 81 GS450T, 7K miles. Needs an igniter, but overall in really good shape. I did a few modifications, but nothing too drastic, just wanted to get rid of some of the blingy chrome....

Pics are from my phone-seem to have lost my camera. First one is the day I got it home, second is mocked up with the new tire and fender. Also used the Duplicolor chrome blackout kit for the rear fender and chain guard and painted the pipes-they were pretty pitted, but you can't see it very well in the first pic....

Now that there was my old bike .

Very nice Mekanix! Mountain Dew FTW!
