"new" Yamaha xs750 project

[KOCONUT]

Yeah, its taking longer than I had hoped
Time has been extended due to new job and living arrangements. You know how it is, life gets in the way of these projects. I had to take it into a shop to get the final bit put back together but she should be any day now. Already have another project for the girlfriend waiting in the garage.

Lookin' really good!

That seat looks pretty good. Is it from Airtech?

 

[KOCONUT]

No its from hotwingglass.com. It's nice, but I may swap it out for an all black, covered seat. I didnt put a hoop in the rear of the frame, so its just hanging out there and vibrates quite a bit. If I decide on keeping it, I'll def be looking to put in a hoop. Need a new taillight too, the crappy one I put on there broke as soon as I hooked it up. Guess 12v means something else in chinese.

You got that bike all together and running now? I picked up a '77 750D over summer and just about got it finished. I like how yours came out.

 

[KOCONUT]

yeah its all built up and I've ridden it around a bit. Having issues with the DMV getting it registered though. Good luck with your build, if you need any specialized advice, check out www.yamaha-triples.org. That site has helped me tremendously in getting my bike going.

Yeah i've been on the triples forum, thanks and good luck with the DMV. I still have to go back and show them my paper work from the CHP, but as far as i know I'm all paid up on it. The bike was out of the system and all I had was a bill of sale, no title hah.
