sorry for the disorganized photo display. im using photo bucket for the first time.

Just copy the img code from Photobucket and paste it into your post here. Then hit return twice to get them lined up underneath each other with some spacing.

Hope everything goes well during the clean up.

Wow that's some mighty fine-looking work you've done there!

major milestone

well i got my carb issues ironed out and got it to start and idle. if it had a chain i could test ride it (also from master cyl) fork oil, close up the headlight, figure out why my warning lights quit coming on, fix signal lights get new front tire, reupholster seat, get grips, helmet, insurance ,paint the tank and fenders, inpection sticker, tags. Thats all i need!6 months in and It has gone from a pile of crap to having signs of life. My goal was to get it ready by october bike week on south padre island to terrorize all the hd posers. (better knock on wood).

How long since it ran? What's it story of how it cam to you? In another post?

[snicrep5]

Ill get more pics in. I have to get better at using photo bucket . the pics i put in came out really big.
im using the stock airbox with carbs i got off ebay from a 81 or 82 1100.
its unclear how long since it ran, but the license plates were last renewed in 1998.
when i went to change the tiltle, it wasnt even in the system anymore (which started to worry me). but they were able to re-enter it.
sold my 07 bonneville due to lack of cash and decided I needed anything on 2 wheels. happened along this on c.l. for 300.knew nothing about gs suzukis. my last suzuki was a 72 tc 90 when i was 15. got this one for 275, but ill probably be at around 1000 by the time im done. plan to take it around the block in the next week or 2, which im dying to do.
