Here are some quick pictures i took at the car wash, didnt really need to be washed, but the roads had a little salt on them and wanted to keep the trailer clean, will probably sell it really soon as i dont really need it.

I really like how the guy lost the battery nut, and instead of finding a new one, the worm clamp comes in handy. I got home and noticed this, and thought, hmm, maybe this is the starter problem. Took it out, and like the whole top of the battery came apart and then really thought, hmm, maybe the battery was just roasted. Nope, put in my good AGM battery and same problem. Oh i think i will start a new thread to show my progress as well like racerxxx and suke did. I guess I just wanted to be a part of the cool restoration kids group! Lol

Is that RTV around the cylinder heads? The nicest looking thing in the engine bay are the spark plugs.:lol:

Nice catch, you did good on this, looks to be in nice shape. Thats I nice trailer too.

Im still disappointed that your throwing the GSX under the bus.:cheers:

If I get this thing running for cheap, and can sell the trailer to recoup some of the money, i may be keeping the GSX around! We will see tho. Who knows, maybe I will flip the XP, we will see how much i need two skis, but i think i can get this thing going cheap!

Lol yeah the babied thing...i dont think so. Holy smokes, $550 for a trailer??? I have this exact same trailer i bought with my GSX i bought for a few years ago, and am trying to sell it with a Kawi 750 SS which needs a top end for $400 package deal. I think new single trailers are less than 550 down here in Missouri...will prolly stick it on craigslist for 450 and see if i can get close to it
