Upgrading the Suzuki

Well, in this case I'm actually downgrading it. At some point around 1989 I acquired a 1978 Yoshimura modified Suzuki GS 1000. It was actually nearly impossible to ride on the street. So I'm having Bikeworx rebuild the engine, repaint it and the frame, and add all the silly things that the DMV requires such as turn signals, horns, that sort of safety nonsense. So for those of you who care, here is a pic of the bottom half of the engine and transmission. With a little luck, when I'm not soldering uber expensive op-amps into inexpensive gear I'll be riding this.  Posted by Picasa
