Guest YoshiJohnny Posted September 3, 2015 Posted September 3, 2015 Long story short...When I was a spotty 19 year old... there were 3 of us riding around on nutjob GS1000sRob had his first and has kept it...life, work and kids meant when it started smoking heavily he shoved it in the garage and it got covered in garden furniture and cement bagsThis is how it came to the garage after a jet wash Quote
Guest YoshiJohnny Posted September 3, 2015 Posted September 3, 2015 Stuck a big bore kit in it and the SSR head I have had lying around for agesCleaned it a bit and sorted things that needed sortingIt now looks like this and is ready to run and MOT for his return from Switzerland this month.. hope he's happy with itThanks to Kev for his hard work with paint and stuff... diamond geezer Quote

Locomotion Posted September 13, 2015 Posted September 13, 2015 Very nice, a lot if work gone into it. Just my opinion a Marving exhaust would suit it nicely 1 Quote
Guest YoshiJohnny Posted September 13, 2015 Posted September 13, 2015 I hate the fucking exhaust.... I have a couple of different ones hanging in the shed but it's not my bike and he wants to keep the hideous bastard of a thing Quote

Moe Posted September 14, 2015 Posted September 14, 2015 I hate the fucking exhaust.... I have a couple of different ones hanging in the shed but it's not my bike and he wants to keep the hideous bastard of a thingAsk him if he wants a spare one , it would get rid of the bloody monstrosity that I have in my shed Quote
