1977 Suzuki GS400 Rebuild

I picked up this bike, together with a pair of GT500's from a fellow in Vernon, BC in early June of 2009. To be completely honest, I didn't really want it, but it was a part of the 'package' so it made it on to the trailer and came home with the two Titans. Its been a few years since I worked on a 4 stroke - at one time I spent a lot of time on Honda CB350 and CB450's but it has been a while ! The engine was not stuck, and the bike was mostly complete but in very rough shape. As with my GT750 rebuild, this site will serve as a repository for whatever material I generate from my BLOG located here.  Below are a few photos of how it looked when I first got it. While most of it was there, the instrument cluster was broken, and the exhaust, headlamp and side covers were missing..
