Gs Ugly No More!!

[Guest]

got my GS going my way now and the pieces came in from paint today. still lacks the 1/4 fairing. Upgrades include: andrews coils, dyna s, and PAINT.
Still have to send the old seat pan to Sargent's for upgrades and matching piping. i wanted it up for the rally but it was not to be. the wife says we will attend next time if it kills us.
i tried to put one of the old pics and a couple of the new. but i don't know how.

Great paint theme! I am going to paint my 850 this winter with the same paint theme as yours. What colour tint of blue is it painted and does pin striping separate the white from the blue tint. Thanks Ted
