Congrats on getting the job done!
How did you end up installing the rivet clip?
i took it to a guy that had the right tool..took him like ten minutes and i was off. only charged me $10 bucks :icon_mrgreen:
so that's a how big rear sprocket ? does it whoolie like mad or what ?
48 and yes if you open it up it will get you lifted :icon_lol:
Looks like you are down towards the coast by the looks of the ground.
yes sir actually bout 2 hrs, Raleighwood nc
What's that on your exhaust? Paint, decals?
its spray painted bullets...rustoleum style
how much did the headlight cost you ..??
It's a nice bike, looks good. Your belly pan is a cut up stock fairing I'm assuming?
Really cool Dude! I like the headlight.Street fighter style! :cheers: I have a rear sprocket like that also looks great! :thumb:

i think I paid 40 bucks on ebay for it. Im not to fond of it after putting it on. its not dot and its really dim at night. I think you can buy the same on brand new for like 99 but you'll want to use some other brackets because the ones they send you are rubber pieces of crap

yeah its stock as it can be but looks a lot better in my opinion
Looks great, I am just east of you near Wilson. I sort of like the whole package w/ the light. I am thinking of doing mine in silver bedliner if they even make that color.
I like the whole look. Now you just need some new pegs.

i actually work in wilson right now but not for long. I got a friend there who took his fairings to the line x dealership on forest hills rd and had them do it. Its tough stuff so you wont have to worry about anything scratching it, besides of course if you lay it down...

Yea i paid a little higher for mine when i put the bike back together. havent had a problem with the light output though. Although i did modify thier brackets.
Do you have a link to where you got your chain and how much it was? Im not sure which one I need to get for my GS.
Also - whoever said clean out around your front sprocket (not sure if it was in this thread) DO IT! I pulled my front cover off and it took 5 cans of brakleen to get all the crap out of there! What a mess!!!!

The stock chain for the GS is a 520V o-ring with 110 links.
Here are some threads from gsJack with chain recommendations for the GS:

by the look of that tire, I take it you're commuting and stunting. Not bad at all except that exhaust. Man thats gotta go soon. :cheers:

at 80 its about 8500 so it didn't do to much to it
