Geoff the giant small bike

So basically, if I die, you can all have a proper giggle that Doug died on a GN with less than half the power of his ZX6

Good brakes and good engine might make an accordion style frame if you try and do skids!

ZOMG!!!!!!!!

lol Either that or it'll snap all the spokes

I'll try hunt down the front end off one of these '78 GS550 Got to keep it period looking

To my "knowledge" it runs the same LHS fork lower and the RHS is the same with the exception of the caliper mount.
The hub should be the same, Geoff has accommodation for a second disk there.


Kind of want that tail too... I love that style rear, might look at doing something like that too.
Thoughts?

The Japanese GN's came with spoked wheels. When the manufacturing moved to China the wheels became the crappy pressed steel version. There is a big quality difference between the earlier Japanese and the later Chinese version.

Here lies Doug. Went out just like his engine. With a bang and seizures.

100% Jap assembled this one The wire wheels look much better IMO, and as I've said, was the main resoan I got this one (fuckin' wanker that I am)

Did a little bit of polishing today, clutch cover should be done tomorrow, so will have some nice pictures for the magpies.
It's going to be a tasty looking motor
