A friend of mine just completed this project. I thought I'd post the picture to show off his craftmenship.
The Monoshock swingarm is his own design. I like the "ride off" stand.

Re: R90GSS

Interesting setup.

It's not a ride-off stand! Just looks that way. 1975 r75/6. Swingarm lengthened 3". XR650L front end. Rebuilt motor with R90S pistons. Trailttech vapor speedometer. German /5 police tank and seat. UFO fenders, baja design headlight. Custom wiring harness with junction box where battery used to be in a pelican case. Shorai Lithium battery under transmission. 2.2 lbs! The center stand has an aluminum bash guard on it so when it's up it protects the battery. Supertrapp mufflers give it more breathing and only a little more noise. Mainly back pressure noise upon deceleration. I can't afford a r80gs. I once had an 88 r100gs. Don't want an oilhead. So I created my own gs. I like it.

DK,
We need more picks, especially ones where it's covered with mud.
