Title: Reinforcements on the Dutch front have arrived!
Post by: Krav on August 08, 2014, 01:07:11 AM

Hello!

My name is Peter van den Berge. I live in the Netherlands, and have recently gotten myself a 1999 Suzuki GS500E.
I'm currently working as an network and system administrator for a small company here in the netherlands.

Next to playing games, and doing awsome computer stuff my passions are Krav Maga and tuning mopeds. I got my motorcycle license about a month ago now, and as soon as i got the money for it, bought myself this motorcycle:

I plan to use this as a project, as i currently don't really NEED this two wheeler. Work i can do by regular bike, so its not an issue if this machine has to stand still for some time.

In the time awaiting my account approval i made this. It's what i want my bike to look like. I know, its not really stealthy, but i think it could work really nice.
Yeye! I know :p ROCKSTAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just like their logo a lot :p sue me!

Anyways, I hope to have a wondefull time here at the forum! :D

Welcome!
Nice bike! The rockstar theme looks awesome... I would personally have the frame powdercoated black to complete the look.
And maybe black out the engine with some yellow details?

Waar kom je vandaan in NL?

I want to have the fram powdercoated at some point, as there's little spots of bare metal (read: rust) on it. But the rockstar colours are black, yellow (or gold) and grey. If you google it, you see a lot of bikes with grey accents aswell.

I thought of having de cilinder painted black, with a yellow cilinder head or valve cover or something. Its still a thought in progress, so i welcome your feedback on the idea :)

Ik woon in Amersfoort. Woon je in de buurt? :p

Dat is wel n eind ja :p ~~Heb je zelf ergens een projectpagina staan?~~ Ik zie m al! :) Waar haal jij al je onderdelen? Alleen de dealer en ebay?

Beetje rond shoppen...
Op eBay vindt je wel vanalles maar het is niet meer wat het vroeger was. Vroeger kon je leuke koopjes scoren via de veilingen. Nu is grotendeels "standaard" verkoop. Vaak is het ook gewoon goedkoper om rechtstreeks bij de fabrikant te bestellen.
Ik heb bv mn veren (sonic) en ketting smeer systeem (motobriiz) rechtstreeks bij de fabrikant besteld.
Onderhouds onderdelen bestel ik via internet of ik haal ze bij de lokale onderdelenboer.

"The hunt is half the fun!" ;)
