The countdown has begun....for us both

Also couldn't resist this eblag bargain and changed the tank decals as they were off a suzuki car.

Spent the afternoon trying to sort out the indicators and tail tidy that was a bit dodgy. Replaced tail tidy with a better metal one that needed some mods and a spray of pj1, then went to refit the indicators and you guessed it one f..ing broke so still not sorted,now need to get a new one. Fitted some renthal grips and rg bar ends to.

Like it a lot ...its tastefully loud

There's never any quality issues with a good old fashioned cougar ....

Looking good, all you need now is some of these special 80's leathers Fieldsheer Acid worm....awesome

Thanks

Nice one mate. Mines deffo been removed by previous owner before powder coating, oh well

Cheers Mick, can't see a picture though??

Planning on going Sunday,how much is it to get in?

Thanks mate just the job this answers my question cheers

Any luck with the photo yet mate?

Yes shortened a touch by previous owner and seat shortened to suit using original seat base then recovered.

Just finished nights so came home and decided sleep could wait so fitted this instead,to replace the home made version that was on the bike when I bought it.

Cheers Wilf thanks for this

Does anyone with a 750 or 1100 ET frame know if there should be a recess or lugs on the top of the steerer tube for the steering lock to lock onto/into? My lock works but I wonder if the lugs or recess have been removed by previous owner before it was powder coated. tried looking online but non of the diagrams of the frame show this detail,all help or pics appreciated

I reckon it's a late N model mate see here

Added some of this supposed to stabilise fuel and stop ethanol doing its worst

A few suspension tweaks today,sorted the rear indicators for now and gave a little polish with some uber wax which is good stuff Test ride went ok until I lost the back end and nearly went into orbit with a nice high side should know better but got a bit carried away.. Oh well forgot it was 36 years old.....went into the bend at the same speed as my track prepped non suzook. Couldnt stop laughing got home told the missus and she gave me a bollocking

Not used on a GS but they are cable compatible and you can buy additional options for different bikes when you purchase see example info here https://www.digital-speedos.co.uk/gauges-c4/motorcycle-gauges-c27/multifunction-gauges-c29/koso-dl-03sr-black-multifunction-gauge-p10 Loads of folk on here have used them and can give you more up to date info

Panels and new badges back on the bike

Re-drilled the panels that had been de-badged and fitted nice new shiny ones.

Badges arrived from Holland ready to fit at the weekend,still cheaper than buying from U.K. Even with the postage on top.

On nights tonight so spent this morning sorting a few mechanical issues found after a quick blast at the weekend. Treated the alloy bits with wheel sealant to make the task of cleaning less of a ball ache. Ordered some badges and decals off eblag,and need to sort engine breather and rear indicators at the weekend

Cheers I'm well chuffed
