never in the history of the world have so many done so much for so little xs650

[crazypj]

What's your point? My projects are often like that. Seems normal to me.

The biggest problem is that I keep ending up with a pile of parts I didn't use and some part of my brain tells me that I have almost enough parts to build another bike out of the leftovers and off we go again.

It's the treadmill of project life.

That explains a lot, glad I'm not the only one with load of 'spare' parts ;D

I knew the perfect tank was close but it wasnt there yet. i fought with getting it to sit on the frame right just long enough to not care about the time i had in it thus far. Sooo i cut the tunnel back outta it and took another inch outta the height and built another tunnel. i got it all back together, its the best champion style flat track tank 37 bucks can buy.

 

[oldskool]

hell yeah!!!

 

[JustinLonghorn]

Yes Sir!

 

[Sonreir]

Not too shabby.

 

[Rich Ard]

Cut much more of it out and that CF seat is going to tip the bike backwards

 

[DreadRock]

[bradj]

[bradj]

[xb33bsa]

paint it trail 90 orange like your bender 8) 8)

 

[bradj]

You mean 75 rd350 orange or hugger orange

 

[Rich Ard]

No, green, like the trail 90 was. Bright, bright green.

 

[irk miller]

Hugger orange would be sick- as in 69 SS Camaro with black rally stripe hugger orange.
