Simple GT750 Re-Fresh (In Progress)
Posted: Sat Oct 18, 2014 5:48 pm
Picked this bike up a few months ago, not running, leaking, frame looked like a Cheet-O there was so much rust. It's been a work in progress up to this point and I'm having a set of Jemco pipes made up right now. I need to still sort out the turn signals/brake light situation. I know cutting up a GT750 is not for everyone but alot of the frame had cancer rust (to include the rear subframe. As you can see from the original pic, alot of parts were missing and as you all know, tracking that stuff down is tough.
The stock oil tank was cracked and leaking so I used an automotive catch can (for now anyways). I tackled the usual gripes like the water pump seal, gear indicator switch seals, etc. Paint is GM Charcoal Silver. I love this bike, the power hits hard and that 2-stroke sound is so addicting. I'll update with a new pic when the pipes arrive.
The information on this board is invaluable and I appreciate everyone's posts on here.
