          holy crap. That thing's got a center stand. I wonder if the rider can actually get it up on that thing. I have a hard time with my gs750 as is.

            Yeah he should get some kind of award for that thing. If Elvis had a GS, that would be it!

                Gotta agree. I'll bet his wife had some input as to the "decorating" of his ride. Some people should not customize.

                    conversion what, personal preferance and such....but its a little gay, seems to me he had it painted and changed the lights, bolted on some police bags. not to much of a conversion really, but its the doods bike, and if he dosnt want or cant afford a harley,well the the GS is a awesome bike,
                    Though My self belives in renthals / rear sets/ Drag style, and i dont mean in a dress

                      on the other hand

                      I hear you all saying that, but on the other hand I see some things I want to (or might have to) do. For example,

                      I like the rack on the tank for the tank bag. Perennial problem of bag scratching paint is solved. Now I am not sure I like the actual design, but the concept is, I think, excellent.

                      And given the combination of funds, time, and skills I'll probably have to make my own saddle bags. One of the puzzles was due to a desire to be able to remove those bags without too much hassle. A base/cage mount was on my short list of solutions because if needed I could pull the bags and put something else on it. Now I think he's way too heavy in the design (big thick chrome pipes to form it all) but the basic idea seems right. And I can see the mounting arm well enough to give ideas for my own future use.

                      Now I admit the rear bumper cage is a bit extreme. And the over-engineered luggage rack looks able to hold more weight than any sane rider would put there - sane being defined as someone who likes to ride with two wheels firmly on the ground, not one firm and one touching now and then. But it could be worse, and taste aside it looks like he did a fine job of actually doing the work.

                      Just this newbies two cents.

                              if he likes the bike then more power to him, we all have our own personal tastes... atleast he's riding a Suzi instead of a freakin harley... and yes i agree he looks like Popeye... oh and uhhh he needs to put on a damn pair of pants!!!
