    EX500 Failstrom: Thanks to Bash & the Dirty South!

    Nearly a year after repossessing my old EX500, its metamorphosis is nearly complete.

    Thanks to Bash, GSXR Scott, Dallas and everyone else for parts, labor, inspiration and support. This is truly a dream taking form!

    The seat, platform for the ammo cans and seat back are necessary to help secure a 4-year old daughter. By the time she's tall enough to really ride pillion on the GS she'll have had plenty of seat time on the faillie.

    Yeah, but they're full and hidden. The Minigun's just a precaution if the dead start to walk... j/k

    They were pretty cheap on ebay, but the usual surplus places on S academy and in Manitou have them too.

    I'm upgrading to the carbon fiber duct tape this year for the rest of the exposed parts, thankyouverymuch.
