Hi there

[soichiro]

I just picked up a GS650G on fleabay, it's a bit ratty but it's an ideal project. I'm no stranger to projects, my pride and joy is my Honda 400four, but it's a bit small to keep up on rides. Riding a 40 year old bike hard isn't a good idea.
What I like about the 650, apart from it's more powerful, is the shaft drive - just like the GS850G I had years ago.

The parts sourcing has begun....new indicators, back light, second hand front mudguard. Needs a seat cover because it's split,

The front break needs bleeding (at least), the rear caliper is a bit seized and needs stripping

I don't think it's far off from an MOT.

Mike

If you tell me how to post pics, I'll have a go

The easiest way you s to setup a photo bucket.com account (free) when you upload a picture it will give you a URL you can copy and paste into your comment and the picture will load. I believe you copy the URL titled IMG

Didnt seem to work.

When typing in the message box, instead of hitting post quick reply, if you click Go Advanced, at the bottom of the box there is a button to preview post, when you click that, you can look at your post as if you were someone else looking at the thread, when you have it the way you like it and the links work, you can then click submit reply.
