Suzuki GT250 cafe racer

So I haven't posted in a while because we have been so busy building bikes...it almost seems that there is a gathering momentum...we have finally "finished" the GT250 and it looks, runs and rides far better than I would have ever imagined...we still have some tweaking to do to figure out a few things and it may change color by next Vintage Days but I feel we have a good handle on things as they stand now...I'm hoping to get a photo shoot with the bike to put it on Pipeburn but we will see...our next project is under way too...another GS450 that belongs to our painter Jarrod Wettling who is doing the tank and seat for the Flyin Hawaiian which I will post about soon...the GS is going to be inspired by three bikes that I have look at very intensely over the past few months...Big Sid's Lola, Mike McFaddens Salt Shaker and Doug Divines Salt Flat Racer...our is....well let just say storied...
