Did the hub sell? If not I'd be keen...

Is the front hub disc or drum? Single or twin etc :)

Looks great!! Here in Western Australia a plate that's not vertical enough will land you $1200 and 7points...it's so hard to try and get a tidy rear end that's still (vaguely) legal. I had my fabricator create a "floating" license plate and tail light mount that hangs off the back slightly...

Fuck man, don't toss anything away!! You can sell that stock stuff and use the cash to pay for upgrades!! Oh and if you don't buy it I'll buy it and ship it back to Australia, those things cost upwards of $9k in that condition over here :(

Welcome mate, Nice little project you've got there! Sorry to say but I'm with the others; the seat and suspension changes aren't good for function or form in this case. A thicker seat will firstly be more comfortable, but it will also balance the "visual weight" of the tank a bit better. In...

Personally that tank looks wayyy too big. You could probably run that bike all season off one 750 tank of gas! ;)

You've got a hell of an eye for design, can't wait to see more!

Re: "Tangerine Dream" - KZ750 Yep Sonreir's on the money; either red/black, red/white or red/silver are classics that work great...that said..it's your bike!

Measure the diameter of your current subframe and that'll tell you what to get.

Nice one! Those bars are awesome and everything looks slick and clean. If I may suggest something...the carbs are the only non-"clean" looking part of the bike now. Are you able to give them a bit of a blasting or maybe a lick of paint? That'd finish it off cosmetics wise for me :)

Just replace it with a <78 centerstand and you should be alright from what I can remember..

Awesome! Heaps of XS's crawling out of the woodwork recently! That's a really clean example too, should be easy to get going again. One day I'll get working on mine again...

Thanks man, I've been following your build too. :) You're getting pretty handy on that polishing wheel! Wish I could polish mine up that well..

Having a play with some tank designs at work on MS Paint....I think of this as a blue bike so currently I'm thinking a deep metallic blue. Started looking for some classic inspirations and came across this old car (no idea what it is, don't know American cars at all). Really like the deep...

Thanks gents, the drums will definitely be staying! Need to work on the jetting too, it seems to be running progressively richer each time I ride, especially on the pilot circuit. Also it's become very clear that the rear shocks are pretty stuffed, and sadly they aren't rebuildable either so...

New pics are done! Only a few for now, need new rear shocks, tank paint and then I'll be good to go for a proper shoot!

Re: 1974 BMW R60/6 - New Subframe in progress! Bit of a teaser of the new seat..decent pics coming shortly...

Re: 1974 BMW R60/6 - New Subframe in progress! I think cable stretch is my biggest enemy at the moment (I did just fit brand new cables) I'm finding the same with the clutch too. Hopefully they'll settle down a bit. I don't think the issue is the hardware, I think it's the idiot that's...

Nice clean build, keep it up! :)
