Not a real project , but does need sorting (carbs and ignition) and refreshing a bit.

dear moderator, wasn't sure where to put this post so please move if necessary.

Immaculate rebuilt GPZ1100 BI engine on a hand built frame. I knew the guy that built it and then the second owner who has had it for over 20 years, sort of streetfighter come lowrider thing from the mid to late 80's.

Now lets try the pics^^

They are identical to the carbs on my J1 apart from the paint.
I always believed they were original and have no reason to think otherwise.
