    anyone here racing a gs1000 or similar bike?

    I just had my first races on my 78 GS1000 and need advice on what mods to make over the winter, particularly the ignition. I'm considering several options, including running a total-loss system or switching out the Dynatek ignition for an Electrex magneto system. Much obliged.

    Go to http://www.teamkz.ca/

    The guy helped build RCP's 78 GS1000. He might be able to help. I do not know him. So, I can really say if he would help out. It is worth a shot.

                Very nice. I'm going to search for his write up on this now. He did do a write up, right?

                        Try a GSX alloy swingarm. (maybe braced) and love the carb intakes. Who made those? Interesting if you will have issues with that exhaust when u get better traction.

                          That's an interesting place to mount the oil cooler. It doesn't get in the way of your knee?

                              steeldragonperformance.com made the V stacks. I already "have issues" with the exhaust dragging, but have Traxxion front springs and emulators ready to be installed. Also need better rear shocks. Hopefully that will take care of it.
