Greg's blacky is an 86 and it is oil cooled. I thought 85 was the last year they made the 1150 air cooled engines.

Nice looking so far. R U planning to add signals and such to ride it on the street?

Gs

Yes, It will be used as a streetbike and I will add signals. I put the bike together for mostly playing at the track. 1/8th mile mostly. I have a wet Nitrous kit to install on it to help make it a little faster. 86 Was the last year of the GS1150, they were the ones that had the big Suzuki letters across the tank. I plan on installing the 1500cc Big Block for a little more added power. I just sold my 06 ZX-14 and wanted something as fast. The GS should do the job.

Very nice. What 1/4 mile times you looking at?

I am looking for some 8.90's out of it. At least that is my goal on the juice.
