28th July 2010 - Kurgan - Suzuki GS1000E - Custom

Published on 31 October 2022 at 15:31

i brought this Donor bike, as it had all the parts I needed for Kurgan.

And was stupidly cheap as well, just a few £100.00 and as a bonus I heard the motor running before we parted with out bike tokens :) :) 

 

The Engine, Carbs, Exhaust and fork tubes - will be put onto KUrgan.

I already have another set of fork tubes to put on Donor bike then will sell it on

 and hopefully get some of the bike tokens back in the pot :) :)  

altho the Donor looks very nice, It's just way to small for me!
If I sit on the bike, I can not get my feet on the foot pegs, and the handle bars are too painful.
Beside I like Kurgan, not that he is without his issues, but a better starting point for me...
