Cloyd it works great, I cut it and drilled it and fit it so it just keeps the rear wheEl off the ground by about 3/4 of inch on pavement. My driveway is loose gravel so it appears lower than it is.Cloyd said:Very Nice. Whats the deal with your center stand. Does it hold the bike off the ground or just enough to keep it from falling over?
Jim these are nice stock tanks. As a matter of fact I was at the local boneyard and I stashed another one for a future project to come.gentlemanjim said:Nice very nice. My all time favorite bike. Love those XS750 fuel tanks. I've used them on Xs650's, Virago's and even a Honda CB650.
Tim yes i did. it was a nice piece, easy to install make sure you take the casting off the sides of the adapter as needed so it centers up in the original filter hole as best as possible. Have yet to put fluids through it so time will tel how it functions.........but it sure looks nice pokin out the sideTim said:Awesome - would love a closeup of the damper mount on the frame. Were you able to use the stock frame gusset to mount the damper? My '72 frame has smaller gussets that don't reach as far down I think.
Did you use the 650Central spin-on oil filter setup? Been thinking about that kit.
Thanks tiki. yes those are the 5" decals you can buy all day long on ebay for 3.99 free ship. They applied and clear coated nicely.Tiki-Al said:You know the tank decals, are they just standard vinyl cut? Did you clear coat the tank afterwards?
Cheers
