I was just wondering what you all think?
It took a while, but I finally got one more of my projects finished.
Thanks.

Fixed your UTube link. Wow! :shock: That's nice, let's hear that baby.

Your picture is not linked right, seems you may have linked it to an email account. You need to get the pic onto the Web or attach it directly from a folder on your PC.

There I fixed it. Sorry about that.
Here's a video of it running.

I'm having a hard time getting the video to come up in the editor.
Don't pay attention to the laughing, My cousin thought he was funny.

For a couple of reasons.
1. I have a lot of 1000 parts and not many 1100 parts.
2. I had a set of 1100 pistons
3. I had a siezed '78 block that needed machining anyways.
4. I had read that someone did it on the forum, but didn't find much more information.
5. Someone told me: "That can't be done."

I guess another reason might be to retain the transmission ratios from the GL1000 as well. Nice looking ride for sure, any plans to put it on a dyno?

Great job of doing something someone told you you can't. You did! That bike sounds great too!

I like it. I would like a 1up seat, but if not, that style/shape would be my second choice. very cool build!
