Not so much a new purchase but new paint! TX500 tank in Hyundai green

 

[buckeyebike]

Cool color!

Picked up a 82 CB750, a Wilton bandsaw, and a Harbor Freight bandsaw (new) for $375 total.

Got the bike home and a battery hooked up, started first push of the button. Paid $275 for it.

Saw the Wilton driving home at a yardsale. Guy said it wouldn't cut. Gave him $100 for it and the cheapo. He had the blade on the Wilton backwards.

I thought you were on your way home from the County fair w the Grand Champion Lima Bean !!!!

That is some purdy and SLICK paint.

All you guys buying the xs650 motors lately suck. I cant find one in my region even in pieces...

And buckeye, you suck the worst.

AZ... That is BRIIIIGHT!!! Neat-o.

 

[AzHonda]

Yeah, it has that limeish bright look to it. The color has a cool gold hue to it in the sun. Its not as bright as it seems.
Ah...screw it! Its a damn bright limabean.

To keep things on topic. Thats a new headlight i just installed tonight when i got off work. Look much better than the old, new one (last pic)

That one may not be started on until after Barber. Painting a 350T today, final assembly in a couple, have a custom CBR600F2 I'm building to wrap up after the 350, then a 350F, then a 750 SOHC, then maybe that one. Lot to do before Barber.

Some bits for the ol' XS chopperoo.

 

[SONICJK]

I cant decide if those grips are awesome or hideous hahahha i think thats the point 8)

Slipstream needs to do a tank and seat mock up during the build and give Benji some needed competition for the DOHC market.

I bought it to pattern seats/rearsets off of. If I do ever get into tanks, I've got 100 yards of carbon just waiting on it. Lot more liability in those, though.
