gs1000g mild cafe build

[thebrandonbeezy]

So after about 2 hours of messing about the katana front end literally bolted on no problem.. the bike looks so good with a 17 on it the only problem now is the kat rim is wider then the gs rear rim so are there any narrow 17s that would go on??

For some reason I think cafe bikes with the stock dual exhausts look cool- if that's your plan.....

Thats the plan for now but header tubes are rusted a little so ill end up with a 4 into 1 later. My mufflers are in great shape just wish the rest was too

[thebrandonbeezy]

Yeah i think those will do the trick mate!

I believe they're 37mm? Dont know the other dimensions

[steve murdoch]

Check the size but i think these are the proper ones for your bike.

I ordered mine from the local Suzuki dealer. I figured if the originals lasted 30 years, Im good to go....

I'm following your build, looking good S_Fr.
When I see pics of your projects with all the salvage behind them I imagine a Mad Max world around you.
But then I see a pic with your real neighborhood in background, and it's all normal average. HA!
Best 'o luck.

Thanks man! The red ones gone sadly, my roommate sold the slant back sr20 swap off from it and traded the shell for a roller 300zx just for the brakes lol and the gold one we're restoring has a rb25 with 2.6 crank carlio rods Dimond pistons 10.5:1 on e85 with a 70mm billit ball bearing turbo.. its going to be stupid lol just gotta get it tuned and then its off for paint

On a second note how does matte silver sound?
