    fortunately you haven't seen me on the tech page since the gs is running like a champ.

      I always liked his bike.

      Apparently he got big into Honda Hawks and dropped GS's for the most part. Too bad.

        Wow, I haven't been here for months and I came back because I got a few PMs from people who said. "I don't care what other people say, I think your bike looks awesome." For those who supported me and the bike project, thanks. Its refreshing to see some interest in modifications here that go beyond attaching saddlebags or fabbing Wes Cooley replicas.

        Ron Bayless, you're a major league @sshole. I was really enthusiastic when I joined this site, but people like you are one of the reasons I haven't been back here in so long. It might seem crazy but the constant insults made me feel like not sticking around. With an attitude like that you'd think you secretly own a Harley.

        A running bike's value doesn't suddenly drop to $100 just because Ron Bayless thinks it "looks stupid", and considers gaskets and carb work on an otherwise good functioning bike "lots of repairs".

        For the record, the price hasn't been "artificially inflated". I'm just hoping the two people who bid on it were planning on paying. If the winning bidder ****s a brick if the pictures don't turn out to be worth a thousand words, who knows, I might even bargain.

          Isaac, I liked both versions of the bike and I'm not crazy about G models. The fenderless version is reminiscent of the Kawasaki Eliminator. With the fender it looks a little Brit. Nice imagination and application.

            I think it’s sweet. As someone without the time or talents to get very experimental with a bike, I love looking at what folks are able to do with a little ingenuity.

            It's probably not what I would do, but I like it.

                I like the fendered version, but really, I like Bopi's better. All around.

                  If you're really going to build it hardtail don't forget the Preparation H !

                  If I get a hardtail I don't want a custom, just an old flathead Harley 45, 74 or 80, doesn't much matter, with a sprung centerpost seat. Just something to profile on and listen to those semi-muffled pipes! A jewel to take out on warm Sunday afternoons. 8-[ Or be HARDCORE and trailer it down to the Blue Ridge Parkway and cruise the 45mph speed limit all day.

                      let me just say here and now,in all humbleness and sincerity Isaacs,I apologize for saying your bike is stupid looking and I wouldnt give a hundred bucks for it.That was rude and uncalled for.My bike with the laverne and shirley L,the buckhorn handlebars, and the stepped seat would probably cause someone to say the same thing about my bike.Of course they would be wrong.So,accept my apology if you will,but if you dont I understand that too.
