    GS450 Scrambler total rebuild

    This is a video of my totally rebuild GS450 Scrambler. I am very interested what you think of it!

    Nice work on the L conversion.
    Looks like lots of shock travel and decent ground clearance for your trail riding.
    Nervy using #34. haha.

        That looks pretty neat! Nice job!

        How is the clearance between the chain and swingarm with the longer shocks? Mine's way more road biased...

          Thanks! The clearance of the chain was an issue. It touches the swingarm when decompressed, but when I sit down it's perfect.

            Awesome! Where does your seat come from? It looks like a brat type seat but with enough padding and height so that it's actually comfortable.

            Any more details about the build?

              The seat was hand build for this bike. Fits and looks perfect! Long distances are also quite comfortable on the GS.
