Over this past winter I put about 1500$ into my GS. Please don't laugh! Below are some twenty two pics of what I did. This isn't even close to enough to do it justice. There were alot of things I wish would have gotten snaps of but just didn't.

Here is a basic rundown of my inproved bike.

well done my friend

[etam]

nicely done!

didn't know that milk box is that strong!

[jdiggity]

damn fine job, did you paint the silver yourself?

[gitarman]

Real sharp looking. I like seeing the love for an all black engine, with the black frame it looks real speed-tripleish.

[Manix]

Wow, that's gorgeous! Congratulations for a job very well done.  

[Jundie]

very nice  
is it just me or do you see more and more rebuilt/repainted/modified gs500 recently?

[bignuts45]

I'm jealous.  Wish you'd cum do that to mine.

[JamesG]

Looks very good

Suggestions for next years projects:

Black double headlight kit.
Get the fork sliders powdercoated black too.

ASLAM.

that's hot

Good work! Great looking bike. Whoever thinks the black-framed 2004s are ugly should take a serious gander at your GS. I would've opted for black on black on black, including gas tank and side covers, but i'm weird like that.

hehe... i did the same thing this winter.  i'm suprised i got it back together.  didn't do the wheels or tank and plastics yet, but black frame.  was gonna do the plastics and tank a darker, metallic silver

You have done some damn nice work. For this, I salute you!

[The Buddha]

Lovely, but I'd have given you an arm and a leg for the white stuff and traded you mismatched body work to boot... Damn... Also black frame would have stood out with the whites, just take off the decals and put on your minimal carbon look decals.
Cool.

I'd have given you an arm and a leg for the white stuff

That's the first thing I thought of when I saw the '89 tank: "Srinath's been looking for one of those for 2-3 years now."

'Course, I remember you weren't wlling to pay the "arm and a leg" that the wrecker in CA was charging.  Maybe they wanted a BIGGER arm and a BIGGER leg than what you're talking about?   :lol:
