GSA Conversion Anyone?

Spotted this on eBay, would this really convert a GS to GSA? Looks like everything is included.

It's just the tank conversion. Suspension, beak, fairing, wheels, etc to convert to GSA.

well yeah, i mean short of the different suspension, frame colour etc, it would look pretty much like a GSA !

Not sure what you mean by convert then.
If your not concerned with performance or capabilities and are looking purely at appearance, it would be a start, you would get the enhanced range with the bigger GSA tank.
But unless I missed something you would still need to add a GSA beak, screen, dash enclosure with winglets, crash bars, pegs and seat. Plus add fog lights, cross spoke wheels and luggage rack.
You might then end up with something that looks like a lowered chassis GSA.
But I would suspect it would be cheaper, easier and less hassle to insure to just get a GSA. Plus by the look of the add, the tank is from a written off bike and will be scratched or damaged in some way.

I can't see the GSA rear foot-peg brackets that are required should you want to use the GSA Alloy panniers, however if you are using your GS varios that's not a problem.

I Think BullMac is right, better to get the proper bike, it will probably work out much less hassle and you will have the proper bike in the end.
