This is the my thread concerning the long-threatened rebuild of my R80 ST. Okay it's not a GS ...yet and it's certainly not going to become a 300mm travel desert racer because, fun though it is to ride GS's off-road, I spent most of my time on the road. Anyway certain decisions are yet to be made and advice and suggestions will, I'm sure, influence what happens along the way. Below are a couple of pics. The first in August 2004, shortly after I bought the bike and the next, in September of the same year fitted with a 24 litre tank.
