    Body parts

    I've got an 83 Gs650G. Could anyone let me know what bikes I can/can't use body parts from for a custom/hybrid look? I'd like to make it look more sporty, but I don't have good welding skills so I'm mostly looking for boltup stuff. I was wondering if I could use Katana parts from the same generation bikes. I've got pretty good mechanical skills from working on custom/competition rice burners (cars), but I'm relatively new to bikes.

    Katana parts are bound to be pricey - if you're looking for factory replacements (for any GS that came with plastics) , check out www.airtech-streamlining.com .

    If you're looking for fairings, check out www.powerbronze.co.uk .

    Otherwise, the sky's the limit - you could feasibly adapt any part from any bike to work with yours, if you have the time and a patience. A dremel tool, some epoxy, fiberglass mesh, miscellaneous hardware - it just depends on how much time you want to spend....

    Maybe GS550ES parts - anybody know if the tank and seatpan would fit?

    -Q!
