the only true advice i can give you.

fix or modify it for you and you only

some might like it,
some might hate it,

anything($) that you put into it....you will probably lose... unless you remove it, return bike to stock and sell kewl parts seperately

and Yes I build ratbikes for me,  best friend gives me lots-o-crap cause i won't do the finish paintjob normally....
want Iain's money to support my butt in kens shop

If what you want to do is pose with it, and have people ask you what it is, then your plan will surely work, if executed well and thoroughly.  Myself, I would take a look at it until I figured out that it was a stock GS under all the bodywork.  I'd be much more interested in something like werase builds, but that's because that is closer to my goals with my own bike.

Cheers to you for having your own idea on what is right and good and I hope you stick to it, because if everybody did what I liked in bikes, it'd be a damn boring life for all of us.

You all seem to be getting the totaly wrong idea about what kind of person i am, and my interest in bikes :laugh:

Basically i owned my GS for 2 years and it was a rust bucket when it came to me. I chopped and bodged it almost every day and have had a lot of crap from it basically, but it always came through for me in the end. Now ive had the chance to take it off the road, ive been able to spend some time on it and its not a bad bike :)

I want people to realise what an understated bike the GS realy is, and by putting plastics on it and transforming its appearance will get people interested in it, and when im rinsing people around the twisties on a stock GS basically, and round the track on a stock GS... Itll be even better than if i maxed the thing out completely :)

Im not a power ranger by any stretch of the imagination, this gives me a chance to work on something realy unique and have something to show from it :)
