I've got the ame headlight I think. Is it a modified offroad light? Did you install a hi/lo beam bulb in it?

[tntchitwood]

@01ps , No, single filament.

thats sweet 750 would be better but what ever looks cool i was just wondering about inspection and insurance did ya just register it as a 1982 gl 500?

[tntchitwood]

@toneyboy25 , Yes. No inspections here in Pine Knot, KY

how did you rig up the suicide shifter? i didnt think it could be done n this bike, i got my first bike begining of this winter its an 81 gl500 and id love to rig a suicide shift

[tntchitwood]

@PoorUglyBastards4x4 , A rod runs through a tube under the motor from right to left. There is a 3" tab/lever arm on the end of the rod that changes the spinning motion into an up and down motion.
