Title: GS650 built and ready to terrorise the streets of houston.
Post by: The Buddha on September 03, 2007, 05:59:39 PM
The beast is in, and ready to bite.
GR stuffed in GS frame ... motor mounts welded and frame T brace ears welded up amd its now unboltable on demand.
Not bad looking. Looks cobbled together only due to the exposed welds. Else it fits like it was made for it.
Now I'll ride it and post how it is.
Cool.
Srinath.

Me too ... now I gotta figure out when to get the fiberglass to you. Let me know.
BTW, horizontal ... easy easy easy. 2 mins, my welder and I got it in and neither one of us even broke a sweat. The fun was all after, we should have sliced off the motor mount ears before we put the motor in, we just had to hammer and chisel one of them out, I cleaned it with a dremel after, but it looks like it was eaten my a rat even so.
I got all 4 bolts in and exhausts also. OK OK its the 3 inch stubs, but hey davipu rode coast to coast that way ... so  :thumb:.
Oh, pics, well you saw the GR motor, and you know how the GS frame looks like, you saw that too, so this looks like those 2 were added ...  :thumb:
Cool.
Srinath.
