    Thanks Bill. It looks good, but not my favorite thing. The geometry is way off. If you do it, fab up a center pivot point so the throw a few inches instead of a few feet. A foot clutch would also be preferable. The suicide clutch makes it way too difficult to start and stop.

        Guy's have been doin this kind of thing ever since shafty's came out. I have a honda shafty I hardtailed just like this and absolutely NO problems dude! Until you know for sure, why make assumptions?

          You are really just Taunting us

          First you don't post a picture with a matching red fender for months, and then when you finally do, it is with the Hindle on the opposite side

          Cant we get both?

          BTW, I will have a 86-88 GSXR 1100 Hindle pretty soon. I got the last one

          I'll be sure to post pictures

            Are you bringing her up for the rally?
            That's the plan yes... Might have a fairing change by then.. I am toying with the idea of a Maier GS1000S replica style thing. Just bought one to try it out.

            If I do that then the Givi currently fitted might go on the skunk for the ride.

            Got to fit the new gaugeset & some work on the skunk to do too but should all be ready in time so both bikes should be coming...

                      I'll pull it out later and take a shot.

                      Congrats on the Hindle. I wonder if they have any of the 750 pipes left? Might need to look into it for the slabbie.

                        Thanks for the compliments. Yeah i'm actually thinking about putting a black cover on the seat and going with a brushed metal look for the tank and rear fender. Or maybe just going all black

                              It isn't really all that custom, but it is mine. Did the paint and exhaust mod/ carb tuning. Love the new sound of the takeaway HD pipes.

                                Since you've got a pair of Katana's there, I'll go ahead and take that 84 off your hands, you know, to spare you the shame of being called a Katana hog. I do like the pop-ups, probably has something to do with me being raised in the 80's. Anyone have any idea of many of them are floating around?
