Hello all,

For the past 2 months, i have been cosmetically rebuilding my 1992 GS500e. I picked her up for $700 with 13,000 miles and it runs great! Just wasn't the prettiest bike i had ever seen. I received many great ideas from this site and wanted to thank all of you for such a great site. Tell me what you think! Heres a list of upgrades:

Vance & Hines Exhaust
2 new tires
Upgraded mirrors
Painted Rims
Bronze Paint
Upgraded turn signals
New rear brake pads
New Fork Seals
F18 Windshield

Heres the before pic:

Nice paint job! I also like that windscreen, it looks great on that bike.

Did you paint your engine? What kind of paint did you use? I've painted mine a couple of times over the years with alleged engine/high heat paint and after one season it looks like sheite in the sun.  :mad:

The engine was in great shape...i just touched her up with a little glossy black spray paint. I will let you know how it holds up. So far so good  :thumb:
