Title: Almost sold the GS-- pics inside of new project
Post by: erbilabuc on August 02, 2009, 09:32:47 AM
I decided it was time for something new so I was going to sell the GS. After thinking it over decided to just get rid of my 1000rr because I barely ride it anymore. To keep me busy I have decided to build a chopper.

you could at least cut the grass before you post pictures man - sheesh . ;)


the chopper looks like fun. i wonder what it's like to ride a motorcycle anyomre. all i do is work work work, then work ON the gs, but never ride. :(

oh well, some day i'll try actually riding again. :D

Specs for my GS (http://www.suzukimotorcycles.com.au/bikes/road/sport-sport-touring/2009/gs500.html) say 20 liters which is a tad over 5 gallons (5.2-ish)

Either way, YOUR tank will hold more than most cruisers seem to be able to hold.

i like your style. that's a great looking chopper, and i love the f headlight on the gs. too bad the cbr has to go though. that's pretty sweet too!

That's what I tell the clowns who've been wanting this and that ... y'know, bars ... case guards, thick braces ... their carburetors ...
Cool.
