Anyone got a stretched GS5?

[Tronspeed3]

That's the dumbest thing I've ever seen

[weedahoe]

Some people would say buying a 487cid bike is dumb too 

[Paulcet]

Yeah, a 487 cu in bike is dumb.

[Funderb]

Yeah, a 487 cu in bike is dumb.

HAHAHA!

I was just thinking of a bike outfitted with some Continental flat 6 out of a cessna.

[weedahoe]

Yeah, kinda goofed on the cubes there did I? LOL

I used to have a Cad 500 engine though in a 87 442 I had. Now THAT was a fun engine

Anyway, I happen to like a stretched bike obviously, but not over stretched.

[average]

So did u decide to stretch it?

[weedahoe]

Never really decided. I put the idea on the back burner for now.

I ordered a Shark bluetooth audio system for the bike. My Katana rims will be back from chroming in about two more weeks. I order silver, gold and black base coat paint and 3 different candy and pearl flakes to paint with to see which I like best and then have to paint two sets of fairings, the tank, the fork tubes, top triple clamp and inner cowl fairing. Also working on a rear seat cover that once it is finished will get painted also.

So right now, Im maxed on projects and got enough money spread out.

I thought I had seen it also but couldn't find it. With the adjustable R6 shock, I'm sure it could be compensated. IDK. I might do and I might now. I kinda want too but then I don't. As some point I have to quit dropping money into it and what you see in my signature adds up to a drop in the bucket compared to the new paint (candy), the chrome rims and my new lights. I have a bad habit of investing too much. All my rides have been the same and although I say I won't do it again, I always do.

Id say if you did it right, and it didnt look like a pimps caddy on lsd, then by all means. but our beloved gs is not a powerhouse. BUT if you want to see what it would look like, im always looking for a reason to break out the pshop

Yeah but thats like saying only a Busa is privileged for nice mods. I know guys like Busa's and such because they are powerful and fast, but when you're ripping down the street at high speeds, who really gets to get a good look at you? Very few if any at all. What do they think about you ripping down the street? Likely calling you an idiot and waiting for you to crash.

Me? I would rather go slow and look good.
