1975 GT380
Has a '76 front fender (I don't like the forward stays in the earlier fenders), repro mirrors and turn signals, and PO paint.

Absolutely georgeous ! I love the silver 380 paint scheme. My understanding, that paint scheme was originally pretty rare ? Japan only ? Of something of that sort ? But, I think the original had black and blue pins ? Where yours seem to be all blue. Very nice.

Hmmmmmmm - so the section called 'Board Members Bikes' doesn't work for folks ? :wink:

I think the PO repainted the tank, the part outside the stripes. But I did have a silver 75 back in the day.

Hey guys,

My 1976 GT 750. Some of you will recall this bike began it's evolution on Sundial years ago. Well, it's finally finished and coming out of hiding.

A picture of the finished GT was found online by an Editor for Vintage Motorcycles Online. He requested the full story and build up so so he could do a feature for July and here it is now:
