I know a guy who stuck Ducati Sport Classic wheels on a Bandit. They would not be cheap but can be made to fit.

Damn, that's the best looking Bandit I've ever seen.

That GS is friggin awesome. The vision, the work that went in to it. Farking brilliant effort from the fellow(s) who did this. Bag fulls of kudos to you...

To those who need to find some tiny small thing and pick on it to drag the entire thing down... piss off the lot of you... bloody haters. Jealous haters. Let's see you do better.

Man, that GS looks the stuff alright. Why spend double the money on a Bonnie or W800, when you can get a project GS and cafe it the right way and NOONE will know what it is when you ride by. WE all know it is a GS but noone else will.

Top effort that bike  :thumb: :thumb:

I am not interested in anything you have to say
Don't bother talking to me, I will not answer you

steezin_and_wheezin

i am interested in which hub they used as well. emailed the shops email, and didnt get much info. he was stoked on the compliments on the cafe, and said that the wheels were from a supermotard and they made custom axles.

i got a drz not too long ago and have been reading of people putting gs wheels on the drz400's. going to be putting some more research into it.

after seeing this build the parts bike i'm going to pick up today might be going the way of the cafe.
if yer binders ain't squeakin, you ain't tweakin!

That's a great looking bike! I've been a fan of the cafe racer style for a while now. Great job, I love it!!  :bowdown:

Wow. Didn't know stating our opinions made us 'haters'. It is not a help thread or even a build one where we should definitely refrain from going OT. It's like here's a bike whether GS or not..what do you think. At least that was what I thought and the OP thought because he/she said they 'almost like it'.

I don't hate it but it's not my style. Happy.  :flipoff:

I think the bike looks slick, although I wouldn't have painted the frame red, personally.

More VA turn signal BS:  Turn signals have to be DOT stamped, if you swap on aftermarket turn signals they won't pass inspection.  So to pass inspection you have to take off your turn signals, because that makes the bike safer  :cookoo:

Be aware, this is not very wise advise!

Is it currently not red enough for you?  :icon_mrgreen:

Maybe you meant black?

It's currently too red for me, which is why I said I wouldN'T have painted the frame red.
Black would have been nice, so would a charcoal gray, but red is too flashy for the theme.
