Hi: Did you ever find a complete rig? I just recently listed mine for sale. Any questions, let me know. I'm in Rhode Island, southern part right off I-95.

Thank You to all who replied. Borrowed a Royal Enfield from a guy I used to work with. Has a Cozy Sidecaron it now. I pulled the interior out and have been cruising around with Maya for a couple weeks now. Only had 587 mile on it when I picked it up, just shy of 800 miles on it now. Weve been able to put enough miles on now that I'm comfortable that this will work. Just bought a slightly used Velorex 562 for $800. Will be mounting it up on my 79 GS1000. I'll get that squared away and then give the RE back!

An early 562 will work with an early GL with upgraded suspension and ballast. Remember the 562 Standard was designed for a 500cc bike that weighed a little over 300# and will bottom out and wallow in turns with the OEM suspension. After 2004 the 562 Cruiser models had a beefier suspension. One can upgrade to this for around $700.

I have a Bolt on upgrade for use with heavier bikes or for off-road usage that uses a 1" axle instead of the 15mm stock one.
$300. including US shipping.

Lonnie, Thanks for the heads up. This was previously mounted on a 73 FLH, much bigger than my Suzuki. The PO gave me a couple of ballast weights he had used with the car. I'll get it mounted up and see how it is. I have a set of leading axle forks i'm going to swap onto the bike to help reduce the trail. Anybody have any tire recomendations? 18" rear, 19" front right now.

Thanks again to all who replied. I think I'm all set, Still have the Royal Enfield. Painfully slow but a pretty good around town rig. Going thru the Velorex 562 I picked up, removed the body, cleaned / painted the frame. Heeding Lonnie's advice about the GS1000 probably being too big for the 562, I have it mocked up on a 78 GS750. Changed the triple clamps to a set with a bit more offset and am using the later model leading axle fork tubes to decrease the trail. probably won't be finished with the Suzuki until the spring.

She's a little bigger than she was when I started looking.
