Post by: mach1 on July 27, 2008, 09:36:29 PM
so I got some bigger shots
As you can see in the bigger shots some minor work is needed I still need to finish the rear brake bracket and paint to match the frame. Since the pics I added spiked bolts to the side fairings and windscreen see bottom pics.

Post by: tt_four on April 29, 2011, 01:11:03 PM
Good stuff, I've never seen that one before! I think all the tail swaps I've seen were on the E models. I've never seen a GS500F with a new tail. Fit's the body really well. It looks like it is an R6 race tail, but the shape almost makes it look like a gsxr srad tail that's actually proportioned to the GS's size.

Sexi....I'm a fan of the tail swop also.  I want to do that to my bike also.  Any tips on where I can get one?

Great work, Mach.  You've been on that project for a while.  I love the way the stripped & polished wheels set off against the blacked out engine cases.  Nice choices.    :icon_razz:

From behind it looks like a hayabusa ... not really a compliment IMHO, but yea, it looks different and looks like you got a good paint job on it.
The front fairing is the 04+ fairing ?
Why didn't you use the 01+ tail too.
Cool.

Well it beig anold thread the bik has been sold for some tme. The tail wasan R6 race tail from ebay. the bike ian 04 so the point was to not use the stock tail. stock from behind the tail is skinnier than the front farings and with the r6 tail they some what match. The paint was done by me uing  both rattle cans for the primer and base and used my HVLP to shoot the clear. Even tho the bike is gone I remmbr everything I did. My current projects include my 73 mercury couger xr7 with a 351C and a 79 honda CM185T.
