Not mine but pretty interesting project none the less.

Look in the "project builds" section under "Project Old Skool"
I don't think the owner is a member here.
Take care.

That's interesting and they guy says he doesn't know anything about the GT series. I like the knee indent look and black on black paint job.

I like it, different anyway.
BTW, I put those shocks on my grey gt750 and love them. I don't care if they are chineese junk, they were the most noticable improvement to the handeling of the bike.

Interesting take on a 550 cafe. A little over the top for my taste....but that's just me. Love the tank, though.....

Well, John, ANYTHING new would be an improvement over 30+ year old STOCK shopcks, IMO.

I agree Rick, It's a little OTT for my tastes too, but there are some interesting design elements that could be adapted.
I am assured there's a difference between plagiarizing and creative adaptation.
