GS750E?
Mocked up my new (to me) Radian arm and took off the center stand, which is still shown in this pic.
What seat and tail section is that? I read somewhere that the Honda 750 20mm axle is a fit for the radian swing arm. Too bad there aren`t any adaptor bearings.
Super bummed to see another shop go out. There are precious few good moto shops not called Cycle Gear in the Portland area. That shop was across the street from a pretty darn good metric fastener selection at Parkrose Hardware tho.Yesterday while chrome hardware shopping, I met a local shop owner who bought an XS fuel tank from me. We met here at what was Portland Aprilia/MotoGuzzi.
The shut down has affected local shops Very Badly as this is supposedly spring.
This MotoGuzzi shop was small and personable. Had demo rides and group gatherings. Now its closed for good.
Remember spring swap meets? Bike shows? And local parts sourcing the way it was back then?

Motorcycle shops, Parts salvage, Cycle events. Disappearing.Super bummed to see another shop go out.
Ironically, ParkRose Hardware is a "go to" for metric chrome as Ace Hardware no longer carries it. And I've sold Yamaha XS parts twice right there in the parking lot to other local XS guys.pretty darn good metric fastener selection at Parkrose Hardware tho.
Wowser!Finished mounting 3/4 fairing and SR400/500 side covers to the 650.
