Greetings from west MI
Hello. I recently traded some carpentry work for an 86 GL1200I. I plan to make a naked baggerish bike from it. I have a 2008 750 Shadow and an 82 cb650 self built (with help) chopper, neither of which are good bikes for riding two up. Thanks for the add, look forward to getting to know y'all.
It ain't rust, it's patina.

Re: Greetings from west MI
Welcome to NGW. Get a chance, start a build thread and post everything you do. (if you can) We love to follow and see the progress. Also, help if we can. Plus, when you get done, you will be able to come back for years and look at the record of all the work you did. Good luck.
