sweet ass oldschool bike man...my buddy is building an 89 750. not much is moded at this point, its got a D&D header and Kerker pipe and GSXR 1100 mids, custom suzuki emboidered seat, and thats about it, hes planing on rebuilding the forks and rear shock (i think he might pick up a rear shock with the remote preload adjuster)soon along with a new paint scheme, and windscreen...welcome
Another GDC refugee.
I didn't even know this site existed until the SRAD told me about it. Not much going on in the oiler section though. We might have to fix that.
A lot of you probably know me from over there, but for those who don't I work mostly with the oil cooled bikes. I have had newer bikes, but they don't need a lot of tinkering so they bore me.
Here's a shot of my most recent build - not finished yet. It's an 86 750 frame with a 91 1127 motor in it and a few suspension upgrades. I built it from the ground up out of spare parts I had in my garage. Well, okay, I did have to buy a few grommets and such to finish it, so not everything was just laying around.

And here's one of mine that got stolen about a month after I finished it. This was in Monterey during MotoGP 2006. I wouldn't mind having again so if anybody sees it let me know. I'll go pick it up.

Here's another of the blue one right after I got it and before I did any work to it.
And a couple of the 7/11 during the build.
And with every birth, there comes an afterbirth. This mess took a while to clean up but I had worked something like 18 hours straight without cleaning.
