GS850G SubFrame problem

[Guest]

Hey all, so I'm officially a permanent member of this forum because I picked up a 1980 GS850G yesterday. Runs and sounds great and is in pretty decent condition considering it's 34 years old (a year older than me).

Anyway, after getting it home and taking a closer look at it and some pictures online I realized that the guy I bought it from inadvertently lied to me. Don't think he really knew but the rear subframe has been chopped.




I want to get rid of that taillight/blinker mess and put a rear fender/trim back on. What are my options here? if I could get ahold of that subframe piece that was chopped off I could probably fabricate it back on either by welding or some other means.

Ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Buy a used section from someone and weld it on.

There is a parts wanted section you could post an inquiry or there's Ebay.

Ya I was thinking that was probably the best thing, might be hard to find just that hacked off end piece though I'm thinking. Will have to post up in the parts wanted section once I figure out what I'm doing. Thanks
