New Project!

Now that the Triumph is a working just fine, I find my self sitting in the garage sometimes thinking about what else I could do. At the point I found myself considering scrounging the cams of a Triumph Sport, I decided I should probably get a new project bike, so I don't end up driving the Subaru every day while the Triumph was in pieces in my garage.
I was able to pick up a 1989 Suzuki GSXF 600 from a co-worker for $300 dollars. It turns over, but doesn't run. It's one of the most awfully maintained pieces of machinery I have ever seen. I'll post on that later. My current plan is to make a streetfighter out of it.
Meanwhile, here's some pictures:
