I think I'm going to start another theme here at MPOTD and call it "Workshops that don't suck". This is a slight variation on the "Dream Workshops" that you run across from time to time. There's a LOT of really cool shops, sheds, and garages out there that aren't necessarily in the "dream" category.... errrr. although this one definately WOULD fall in that area, So! On top of all cool bikes and "Wanderlust" pics, if you've got a cooler than average shop, shed, garage, barn, or even if you like to wrench in your living room... if you think it's interesting send it in!
Here's a really interesting little spot I found over in a thread at ADV rider... I mean WOW!

Reader Ride. Probably THE Nicest Custom GS1000S On The Planet.
Shannon Hayes Writes in.
Here are some pics of my GS1000S project bike, The guys at Yoshimura put it on there web site under fan photos, so I was thinking you guys might like to see it? I put it together from a 1979 GS1000 and lots of bits from my friends atSteel's Cycle Salvage, the forks, swingarm, wheels, and brakes came from a GSF1200, and oil cooler, levers, and foot pegs from a GSX-R 750. The motorand amazing carb conversion was done buy Eddie at Sisneros Speed Works, the carbs are from a late model FZ1 and the motor has a Wiseco big bore kit. The paint and body work was done by DJ at Str8 Customs. I did the extensive fabrication work myself, but with out my friends It would not have been possible. I hope you guys enjoy the pics and story.
That's just... damm.. I'm just speechless. Thanks VERY much for the pics including yesterdays CB750 Cafe and tomorrow's X-Strom
