Steel City Mods vs Rockers 2019
Posted: Sat Aug 10, 2019 4:46 pm
Steel City Mods vs Rockers was today. Its an annual event in Pittsburgh.
Was in the the Bicycle Heaven parking lot. Included 7 Suzukis: 6 two strokes & 1 four strokes.
The GT550 cafe build isn’t quite finished, so I went over to the dark side & took my 1986 Honda VB700SC. Two bikes over is a Suzuki GS750.

A 1972 Suzuki GT380 barn find with a GT550/GT750 4LS front brake. Sounds good & starts easily. Was ridden to the show.
