Title: Just fnished my 87 GT
Post by: NYSoul on March 12, 2007, 09:15 PM: and I am well happy with it. .I set out to try and build a replica of the last bike I had BITD and I have got pretty close, my old bike had Super Pros but I dont think i am ever gonna find an NOS pair, I also had black Dyno bars but thouth they would look a bit odd with everything else looking new. Other than that i got it pretty much as my old bike was. (oh and the pool tyres, picked them just coz i love em ;) )
Massive thanks to SuperbikeDan for the powder job, pics dont really do the colour or the finish justice (I'll get some better ones when the sun is out)

Title: Re: Just fnished my 87 GT
Post by: hunterdubber on March 28, 2007, 12:15 PM: What rear caliper are you running on your GT mate
I was just wondering whether or not a 901 caliper could be run under the rear, of my same GT performer
or if it would catch in the chain( coz its arm is sticks out on that side )
