I am about to start my build and this video and comment thread has given me a lot of inspiration. I hope mine comes out anywhere near this good. Great work!
I had an 1983, 450L. Mine would pull the front wheel off the ground through 3rd gear. Thing had some power to be small. It was faster than my night hawk 650.
@@snbmat Tak z ciekawości, masz ją jeszcze? Ja jestem zachwycony swoją GS-ką. Jakbym mógł, to bym nią jeździł cały czas. Mozliwe że doznania potęguje fakt iż przesiadłem się z leciwej GN250 :D Jakbyś miał jakieś pro-tipy odnośnie silnika to śmiało pisz :-) tak btw, co to za model opon?
@@czokoanal9121 Tak, cały czas mam i jeżdżę, może nie tak często jak bym chciał :D. Co do silnika to mój akurat jest od zakupu w bardzo dobrym stanie i jeszcze nie było potrzeby go otwierać więc nie mogę za dużo o nim powiedzieć. Jak na te seryjne 44 konie to serio idzie jak szalony. Opony to Pirelli City Demon.
I'm debating between 450 and 550 for my future hobby. I prefer later, but 2-cyclinder engine sounds much better than 4-banger to me (that's why i like bimmers too).
Hey mate, absolutely beautiful job with the bike! I also have a GS450 and I am excited to get to work on it. What was the headlight you used? I really like the look of it.
Hey! Thanks mate! it is a 7" headlight - this one www.louis-moto.co.uk/artikel/headlight-black-7-inch/10035094 - good luck on your build! GS450 is such a great bike to work on
Hola bro. Soy de México voy a comprar una gs 450 pero mi pregunta es donde compraste las piezas de tu moto rediseñada. Me gustó cono quedo. Te paso mi WhatsApp para ver si me puedes mandar la información de donde comprar las partes de de la moto
Hey, the seat is from highwayhawk.com (Seat Cafe Racer Classic Type 3). I used accel 35mm clip ons with Biltwell Thurster grips, headlamp is 7", similar to Thriumph Thuxton's, the blinkers are LED harley style. Rear light is a basic small LED motorcycle lamp - you can find one that fits the seat's curve. The rest is stock.
Hey, It has welded in 2 mounts inside the frame, it holds on two bolts in the back (you have to remove the rear plastic wheel cover to get to them) and in the front it just sits under the fuel tank, so it's easy to slide out of the frame.
Awesome, what I enjoyed the most was you thanking your Dad! I just built a 1977 Kawasaki kz650 for my son! Go Dad’s!

Hey Chris, thanks for the kind words! what are you planning to build?
I’ve got an ‘81 Suzuki GS450T I am rebuilding
I had an 1983, 450L. Mine would pull the front wheel off the ground through 3rd gear. Thing had some power to be small. It was faster than my night hawk 650.
This was a very beautiful build and I hope mine comes out half as good as this. Thank you for your inspiration
Thanks! That means a lot :)
Great little build! Just finishing off a GS750, Ive aways toyed with the idea of building a GS540 scrambler.
Zaaajebiste! Jutro jadę po swoją GS-kę i będę się inspirował Twoją pracą. 5 gwiazdek
Dzięki! Powodzenia w budowie!

Beautiful bike
Thanks!
nicely done Mat. Hopefully my build works out just as good. Can i ask where you got the dustcovers from that are on the frontforks?
Hey, I got them at local parts shop. I think they are from Jawa 350. Also they were a bit long so I had to make them shorter.
