    '81 GS650GX Rebuild!

    Hey Everyone,

    In December I purchased a '81 Suzuki GS650GX. It is black with 22k miles.

    Work completed so far:
    1. Installed clubman handlebars
    2. Shortened cables for new control locations
    3. Remounted horn to under bike location
    4. Now have all four cylinders firing! (3 previously)
    5. Now bike starts when you hit the Start button (always good)
    6. Cleaned carburetor

    Lots of work to do. I will post some pics once it is worth showing

    Work in progress:
    1. Bike came with pods and was not rejetted. Trying to work out best solution here
    2. Black out wheels
    3. Build custom tail with sportbike like storage
    4. Custom seat
    5. Replace brake fluid
    6. Replace shaft fluid
    7. Needs idle speed adjustment (waiting for best air filter option first)
Working...
