The bike was unveiled for my sister Niccy at the last local Bike Night of the season - there were over 900 bikes there and ther GS created quite a stir.....
Niccy has now taken the bike home and I've started back into my FZ750 project.....new thread to follow

Just in case no-one noticed, I kept with the internal throttle but had to lose the internal clutch and go back to a stock lever set-up
We've put a few miles on the bike and the girder front and mono-shock rear ride really well and the whole deal has sweet and mild mannered handling.
The guys did a great job of rebuilding the engine and the paint is just as I wanted it. Overall very pleased and looking forward to getting the MazChopz posse together for ride outs real soon
