:drif:The time has come.. The likes of Willieee and chairman Meow finally broke me. My Gs is undergoing some surgery.

First step was to source some muscles. Found a great set of 48mm ohlins upside down forks and back shock. Complete with 21" front. Can. Off a TM.

Mock fit done. Mmm mmm... Dit kan werk.

This week I will do the steering setup,  convert the triple tree,  and start on the back section

Swing arm extensions,  and new subframe creation.

Then some engine upgrades... 40mm carbs,  and the ol one litre engine upgrade.

Check out the thickness of old forks vs new. Isshhh...

Tune in sports lovers.
