We have recently received an update on the progress of our 1984 Suzuki GSX 400T.
The frame and smaller parts of the bike are being prepped to be powder coated in satin black. The rear loop has been shortened and it now sits under the seat. The rear guard will likely not be used so a hugger may be sourced and modified instead.
Another modification has been made to the swing arm to catch the calliper torque motion on a peg rather than an arm. This will clean up the back end before more brackets are removed to continue the restoration process.
Our 1984 Suzuki GSX 400T was able to enjoy some time in the sun recently. After being in the workshop of JAL Restorations for a while, it has finally been able to be photographed outside in the sunshine!
It’s always exciting to get updates on this special project and we love seeing the bike outside and moving closer to being back out on the road again at some point in the future.
Our friend Clinton from Holdsworth Artisan Metalwork has made this custom battery box for Craig’s 1984 Suzuki GSX 400T cafe racer motorbike. Clinton has carefully made this box by hand, bending the metal into shape and welding the corner together.
With the modified fuel tank back at HQ, Craig can begin to fit his 1984 Suzuki GSX 400T back together. The seat frame had also come back and is ready to start being assembled.
Craig’s Suzuki GSX 400T has been pressure tested to check it can withstand the correct pressure with its new modifications.
The seat frame is also being modified so that the curved piece of metal seen below will make up the new smaller seat frame, leaving the majority of the bike exposed for a more rugged and raw dirt bike appeal.
Craig’s Suzuki GSX400 Custom has come back from Demand Engineering where the exhaust was being fitted. It was a tough decision between a short or long exhaust but the choice was made to go for the shorter option.
It is now ready to be reassembled and the rest of the refurbishments made!
The transformation of our 1984 Suzuki GSX400 is one step further forward today as we painted the metal components in the new satin black finish.
At the same time, we resprayed the repaired dash of our 1973 Triumph TR6, ready for rebuild.
