It does look like a pretty gnarly creation. Should have GSXR suspension though

It is easier to post what is still stock '79 750E:
I have never seen rear shocks mounted with reservoir at the bottom (usually on top) - can you enlighten me why they must be mounted that way?1981 GS850G "Blue Magic" (Bike Of The Month April 2009)

1978 GS 1000 E, 1979 GS 1000 S, 1973 Yamaha TX 750, 1977 Kawasaki KZ 650B1, 1975 Honda GL1000 Goldwing, 1983 CB 650SC Nighthawk, 1972 Honda CB 350K4, 74 Honda CB550
NEVER SNEAK UP ON A SLEEPING DOG..NOT EVEN YOUR OWN.
I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

My new to me GS1150 purchase. It was delivered Friday and after checking everything, charging the battery, changing the oil and cleaning the carbs. Took her out for a short ride and it runs nice. But was lacking the zip I am used to so I put a -1t smaller counter shaft sprocket on it and some different handle bars I put some Bandit 1200 Gen 2 bars on it. I am still working on the headlight.
But here what she looks like in my garageLast edited by stetracer; 02-17-2013, 09:30 AM.My stable
