hello there people

I am sorry if this has been posted before. I am new to the site. I am not a forum guy this will be first experience Shocked .
well the question is should I buy 1978 gs 750 or not ?
a guy is selling this in my city and I ve always been a fan of vintage bikes. originally I come from Nepal living in uk for past 8 years. riding bike was something that came naturally to me, riding in those 3rd wold countries terrain puddles potholes near-miss/ traffic is challenge to anyone Laughing

I do not own uk license but I go for tours whenever I go for my holiday back in my country. I do have neplease license though 10 yrs lol.
I want to convert 1978 gs 750 bike in to café racer before I pass all my test. I do believe this will be a great project. since I have had little bit of experience with bsa , Norton and royal enfield. what do you think will this be possible ? or should I re think Rolling Eyes Karma Thumbs Up

id say go for it.
they have always been great bikes, and you could definitly pick a worse bike to convert to a cafe racer.

Best advice I got before buying an older bike was do an Internet search and see what the parts availability is like. This will be the biggest factor.
