Here it is, my Combat GN.
Yeehaaaar!
Only having one hand to do it all was kinda difficult, and my plaster cast is now covered in green and black paint, but it turned out nice, don'tcha think?

A very well camoflaged GN. Possibly one of the best colour schemes I've seen on one!
Please do not bin by the side of the road though, as we will never be able to find you...:lol:
EDIT: Get an ex army helmet cover (camo of course) that will go over your regular helmet!

Yeah I thought about it being a bit difficult to see on the road, but no more so than a black one really. Well, hopefully!

just mount an M40 on the back.. I'm sure people will do slightly more than the standard 2-second following rule.. do you have army camo and one of those army helmets to go along with the bike?

I haven't got one of those nazi-looking helmets, I'm afraid they might give the wrong message, but I do have an awesome green jacket, a Belgian Army Motorcycle leather jacket from the 1950's, restored with help from Baby B, the leather guru here on Kiwibiker.

just slash but the pipe. Or get a custom made straight pipe to go down the side... constant diameter (2inch?) and in matt black.

that's cool, but it needs a sidecar. I'd have done in wehrmacht stylez as well.

Great work - it has some real personality now!
I've got an old trench-coat for a military dispatch rider. Size is 3XL so it will go over riding gear real easily. You can have it for free if you want to collect it from Auckland.

Wow thanks, that'd be SO sweet. I'm not heading up to Auckland anytime before next year though, too much work on, so nevermind. Instead you can have some green bling for offering. Or could I give you $20 to post it? PM me.
Thanks anyway!

Nice one Steam! You won't be hard to spot if I see ya in Wellybone!
Good work!

Haha mean! I reckon a sidecar would be cool too.

If that is the case, then he has failed. Perhaps a few twigs & leaves taped to the helmet will complete the stealth mode.
I think it is great. Love the front guard and panniers. :clap:

I can't see any bike!

Pure Class!
There's so many GN riders out there now, maybe you could start WCCGNC - Wellington City Choppers, GN Chapter.

I like it. Get a old army gas mask to hang off it.

Well at least with the paint job you wont have to worry about the chrome coming off :cool:

Cor blimey! That rocks, nice job on the Camo and other attachments, just need to put a gun sling down the front fork, folding shovel down the side and a roll of camo netting on the back!
Whole new meaning to riding "offensively"! :rockon:

I think that would look the part parked next to a T-72. rep to anyone who does so (PM me for the rep)

For the fork sliders, handlebars etc, you could look at using camo tape. Duck shooters use it to wrap their shotgun barrels.

Camo tape! Didn't even know it existed, thanks for that, it'll be ideal for the handlebars

Damn, that looks awesome! Ginnys have always reminded me of those army bikes. Agreed with r6kid, a matte black constant diameter pipe would finish it perfectly.

14th October 2006, 11:14
This type of thing. Most sport shops have it.

Nice job overall. White kiwi bird would have been better. IMO red star is sick, but that's just my opinion.

14th October 2006, 11:35
Dude, it looks like you had waaaay too much time on your hand(s) - and going by the plate probably the worlds oldest GN!!!:lol: :lol:
Nice effort for a broken-arse!
Steam

Now that's a good idea. Maybe like the airforce one, in a circle. Thanks for that.

Confusedpost. What's the repost?
EDIT: Oh if you mean the pictures of my GN are a repost; I have finished it now, the pictures I posted of my GN before were before I did the decals and ammo boxes, etc.

Hey Jeff, hi! Yep, that's what I made. A bit of a laugh eh? See you in a few weeks for some tape maybe.
(EDIT) Your shop rocks!

Good job mate :)
I've heard of extreme measure to evade the boys in blue before, but that's taking it step further. :)
