A long term project for sure!
How I got this one started, I was offered a rolling chassis with engine for the rebuild of Walter's GS1100 engine thru steves on here.
here is that story!
now for pictures that all of us love!
with the katana frontend and SV swingarm. I pulled the engine apart thinking of a complete rebuild only to find fresh cross hatching in the cylinders.
more pics:
engine removed and start of removing unwanted brackets so I can run the monoshock!
trying to decide on powerplant
frame supports I have to do
more:
first attempt of cutting down seat in this one and locating the shock. I have since gained a 1100 kat donor for the shock braces
here is the usd forks with mreedohio's fender, funny, I am using my GS project as mockup for his.
this is where I am right now:
got a steal on ebay on a set of these
so I have been putting in a hour on cutting things I don't need off the frame and working on custom plates to make those fit!
while I have been in this project I have been offered the opportunity to do mreedohio's bike. so the GS1100 is on hold for right now. Good news, I have a member that I am trying to work out some things with to do the bottomend of the engine. That includes, welded crank! I also hope to see some crazy performance mods. We will see as I am able to progress.
