Maz's GS550 project
Just to let you guys see what I got up to whilst the old board was down.....
Here's some of the completed GS550 project..... The bike was unveiled for my sister Niccy at the last local Bike Night of the season - there were over 900 bikes there and ther GS created quite a stir.....
Niccy has now taken the bike home and I've started back into my FZ750 project.....new thread to follow

- SELF INTRODUCTION: Hello everyone. first of all a big thanks to "Dan the Man". Some of you know me from the previous (2) boards and some don't, so here goes. I have been a fabricator/welder for over 40 years now. Damn that's a helluva long time to do anything! Anyways, I have built literaly 100's of street rods, pro streeters, racecars, bikes and trikes over the years. Never made the headlines and never will. I do what I do because it is the love of my life.
I enjoy reading the posts on the forum and try to contribute when I can. I am sure that this will be every bit as good as the CBH forum, as we will have most of the same folks. Good luck and post a lot of pics!! Jim - Location: Lowcountry USA
Re: Maz's GS550 project

Ever stop to think and forget to start again?

Re: Maz's GS550 project
Just in case no-one noticed, I kept with the internal throttle but had to lose the internal clutch and go back to a stock lever set-up
We've put a few miles on the bike and the girder front and mono-shock rear ride really well and the whole deal has sweet and mild mannered handling.
The guys did a great job of rebuilding the engine and the paint is just as I wanted it. Overall very pleased and looking forward to getting the MazChopz posse together for ride outs real soon
