New project, well at least a start.

Hey everyone, I did something crazy. Since I couldn't find a 83 1100E, I bought what was left of one.
Its currently a frame with clean title on non-op. All wiring and electrics. Carbs, coils, triple, controls, headlight, taillight, airbox, battery box and more than I'm sure that I'm missing. Plus lots of carb jets, misc. small NOS parts and such.

Not sure if this was a good idea, but the price was fair. Maybe I should sell the parts to someone who needs them and look for a complete bike, or build it with whatever parts I can find. I felt bad for it when I saw everything laid out in the guys driveway.

I'll post some pics this evening so you all can see the madness.

One of our members on Vancouver Island, CA just bought 2 red 1100E's, very nice, complete and for a good price. Maybe Trevor would give you a deal on one. He has too many bikes anyway.

That would be awesome.

But is there really such a thing as too many bikes??

Now that I have done some research here as recommended by some "senior" site members. It appears that I have many options. Looks like I can pick from many later model Suzukis to use as donors. The only thing that I am determined to keep original is the body work. We'll see how it goes.

Sounds like a whale of a project, but I'm sure we'll all be pulling for you. We all like pictures, now get to work!!!

Get in touch with West Coast member Rapidray. I'm sure he can supply you with parts or the whole 16-valve power train.

I may have a few parts that you may be able to make use of. Some coils, a 3.5" 1150 Wheel. A 2.15" 82 1100G wheel etc...

I took some pics, but not sure how to load them from my iPad. Is it even possible?

Also spoke with guy in Reno. He has all the running gear and suspension from a 1987 GSXR1100. Might make for one wild ride.

Loading pics. See link in my signature about using Imgur.

Looking forward to that. You WILL like the results.

Still can't load the pics. Got an Imgur account and everything. So frustrating. Here is the links to my pics. Maybe they will work.
I picked up a second bike. A bit more complete.

I really want to share, but keep having technical issues.

I chickened out and found a more complete 1100E. Still like the idea of of the GSXR transplant, but Don't know when I'll get to Reno to buy the parts.
