    GS750E rider

    E9F1FC6D-097A-45AE-AC48-C3892668E158.jpg I’ve picked up a 1980 GS750E that will be my daily rider. It will be in the shed in a few weeks so time to start rummaging for parts. It won’t be stock for long.

    Now to find its mate.

      Love the look of Astralites.
      Site member Slayer has a lovely set on his hot rod GS1100.
      How big is that one. 3.5"?

        I'm not sure, should be 4" - 4*1/4". The tire fitted is a 170/60/18 Metzeler ME1, dates to 365, Sept 1995 maybe.

        The front is a 17". I'll see if I can dig it out over the weekend.

            Wow lots of period pieces on your build Slayer, looks great!

            Love the Spondon calipers on those wheels, who manufactured the discs? I had similar Fox shocks, I'm wishing I didn't sell them. The new shocks just don't look period.

                image_59055.jpg GSXR Rear sets, looked at carbs but I think 36mm will be too large.

                  image_59054.jpg I will need to search a little to sort out installing this cooler. Will be adding a thermostat to control the cooling.

                    The discs are from Sandy Kosman. Thanks for the kind words, Sir.
