1976 Yamaha XS500C restomod

Well, I finally got a little more time to work on her and she's just about buttoned up. The only thing left is to replace the flasher, set up the speedo sensor, and add some mirrors. I was able to buzz around the block on her yesterday, and I have to say she rides much nicer with the "new" seat and new tires. I can't wait to get her plated!

This is awesome! I just picked up a '76 XS500, and it's not in "top" condition. I live in St. Louis too, actually. I kinda missed out on the build... but if you've got any wise words, I'd love to hear 'em. I've also got a nasty bit of an oil leak coming from my engine... did you rebuild yours, or just start it up? You have any leaks or things of the sort?

BTW, the blacked out Stealthfighter look is baaaaaaad ass.
