My 82 Suzuki Bobber Build (Move if in the wrong spot)

Last year a close friend of mine gave me an 82 Suzuki GS1100 that belonged to his dad. He has no interest in motorcycles but didn't want to trash it!!

New it would have looked like this:

When I received it, it looked like this:

Since having for almost a year, it looks like this:

I finally got around to taking the airbox off and found this:

Luckily with all the parts I received (anything motorcycle related), is a set of 4 replacement carbs for which I purchased a rebuild kit to install in it!!

Money invested so far for this bike is around $100.00 to $150.00 bucks!!

5th T/A:
Charlie, congratulations on the GS1100. A good friend used to own an 81 GS1100E, it was a great bike and regrets selling it. Once you get the fuel tank and mouse houses sorted out it should run much better!
