Post a pic of your motorcycle as it sits

Tim that 650 looks bad to the bone man.. I love the beach bars!
Still needs a lot of work to be on the road. Need to do the wiring from scratch and dial in the cables/levers. I made the mistake of having 1 inch bars made for it, which of course means I'm matching 1 inch levers to Japanese brakes and clutches. Makes things way more complicated and I should have just stuck with 7/8" bars (and it might end up that I just have another set of bars made).
 
Been a while since I’ve been here, but my 76 550F is nearly complete.

Riding season is coming to an end for me. I put this one away for the season last week. Should have done all of them I suppose, it's looking unlikely that I'll get out any more this year with other activities picking up and the weather starting to change.

I got back to working on one of my eternal projects. I think the exhaust is finally where I want it. There is room for adjusting it still but this is the basic gist of it all.

Looks good, What is that rear fender from?
 
Picking this up Saturday :). Test rode and bought it this past weekend after selling the R75/6.

Nice, how are parts availability these days on Aprilia etc.? They were very hard to get for a while a few years back.

I'm honestly not sure. The dealer is a 5 minute walk from my house, so I have that going for me but if it needs a warranty parts replacement I'm not sure what to expect.

They were supposed to be fixing their part distribution network. Hopefully they have!
 
Supposed to get thirty degrees below freezing tonight, normal weather for this time of year. So this 650ss got stuck in the back of the garage with a battery tender hooked up to it, and it will probably stay there for a few more months, I am in no hurry to get wet or cold anymore.
