Hi Gary,
we talked to each other at the vintage festival, i'm the Quebec guy that was measuring Bev's GS1100 frame.
Pictures don't really do justice to the bike.

Thank you Marc!

How is your bike progressing?

I'm starting with another frame, I received my cones and the steel for my frame jig.I'm not sure of what swingarm to use, I will probably go for something like the Art Robbins GS. I will buy the triple tree and the shocks from Ben, i'm just not sure if my setup will used eye to eye shocks or eye to clevis.I will all depend of the swingarm.
The GS is still my main ride and I will have all winter for the project.

I owned one of the bikes built for Art Robbins and Norm Murphy. Here is Norm on the bike I bought after it was retired. The swingarm was a brace GS1100 arm with Fox Superbike shocks.3393_434072396663370_549761934_n.jpg

Have you still got that one?
I thought Bar had most of the retired Superbikes.

I will probably modify one on my swingarm like this and go with new YSS shocks.
Is this a Wolf exhaust?
I bought one this summer, the canister have seen better days but the rest is in really nice shape.
Sorry for the thread hijack,
