    Gilson "Razorback" Restomod

    Wanted to share my build as so many have shared their builds before, and encouraged myself to do the same. First I am from Arkansas so had to throw the Razorbacks in the mix, WPS! Second my project starts out as just a Gilson frame, nice and orange, with tons of character(scratches). My intent...

    Wards Gilson XE 525

    I am doing a correct restoration of a wards XE525. I have about everything I need except the 5 hard-to-find exhaust pieces. Is anyone reproducing these or does anyone have one they could part with. I will buy in any condition. At least then I would have a pattern to replicate it. 810-691-6352

    424 monkey ward (cause all the cool kids have a gilson)

    Well after tinkering and finally able to order the clutch the lil 424 has moved today under it's own power in 30+ years (according to the original owner I got it from). Still working out the bugs. The rear chain is a goner, broke on me 3 times today and I'm out of master links. Carb needs work...

    Gilson Forks

    Are these Gilson forks suppose to have any rubber inserts
  10. james ackerman

    Wtb Gilson forks. And grips.

    Looking for decent set of forks for a gilson. Someone cut off one of the handle on the set I have and welded on a 7/8 bar. Also would like to have a set of original grips. Also I need a set of clutch springs for the secondary comet clutch on the jackshaft or possibly a whole rebuild kit

    What's the diff between a gilson and allis chalmers.

    What was the difference between a gilson and a allis chalmers bike? They look the same. Was it just the decal set or were there different variants between each bike.
