Title: GS500 street fighter project
Post by: Kylestevens1002 on February 22, 2013, 03:03:45 PM
My gs500 project

I got gave the gs in part. The only thing was the big end had gone and smash the barrel, crank shaft, piston and exhaust valve to pieces.

So I thought that a mite else well do a full custom job.

Thank to gs twin I got a plan together.

The Suzuki on the frame is a sticker. And thanks for the good feedback. I was think of getting my flag painted on the tank to be fair

I do like the twin headlights its give the bike a new look all together. Hope to find cbr600 front end to bolt on to it, that will be the next job.

These little bikes look really interesting with fat tires. I'm so used to the slender 130 rear.
Title: Re: GS500 street fighter project
Post by: Kylestevens1002 on May 17, 2013, 07:01:25 AM
Not a fan of the 130 tyre and they don't make the tyre i want in that size
Title: Re: GS500 street fighter project
Post by: steezin_and_wheezin on May 17, 2013, 07:12:34 AM
Looking damn good mang! How's the chain clearance with that beast of a rear?

Sure, it's not an easy size to shop for. I wasn't crazy about the Battlax I used to have on my old bike, so I have a set of Pirelli Sport Demons coming in the mail.

Wow, very nice looking bike! I love the fat tire, it gives the bike a lot more of a racing look. The paint job is great too. I really like how you have the white and red combo!
Title: Re: GS500 street fighter project
Post by: Snake2715 on May 17, 2013, 07:38:37 PM
I am honestly not sure, but if you somewhat followed that ducati and raised the exhaust up and angled it might be sweet. I realise that means a cut and weld on the exhaust, but it may make it flow well.

But its looking great.

Post by: Kylestevens1002 on May 18, 2013, 05:49:46 PM
Thanks for all the good feedback. To make the chain clear u have to but washer behind the spocket.
