My 79 Frankenbike

[bucketsofgs1000]

I realized that I never posted in the appearance mods section what I did to my bike over the past couple years. I put it back on the road this spring. I don't know how to put it in the message body, so its attached. Let me know what you think.

What parts is the bike made out of to classify it as a Frankenbike?

[Rocketman]

A bike is a bike-all are cool!

Cool, looks like a ride it till the wheels fall off bike. what are the rearsets from?

[KGB]

I like the European style seat.

Where'd you get the rearsets?

[bucketsofgs1000]

The rear sets are custom. I built the brackets from billet aluminum. The linkage lever for the shifter and the brake lever are stock but modified, and the pegs themselves were off some guy on ebay. I called a frankenbike because its put together from all sorts of custom and different parts. It has stuff from 79 gs1000's, 80's 1100's, custom parts, carbon fiber overlays on the bodywork, and a lot of aftermarket stuff. It was a fun project and it runs well too.
