Just the small stuff hey? Cool! That means you're nearly done :D

Apart from the tyres and seat I'm almost in the same position, feels good when you get to that point don't it?
 
Re: Sachs 650 Street tracker/ Video !!Well sort of !!

Ya it dose, Next big exspence is the paint job (still trying to get some ideas for decals)
and sort out a front fender for the winter months of riding, Get seats recovered.
Will yours be on the road by the end of the month? looking good man.
 
Re: Sachs 650 Street tracker/ Video !!Well sort of !!

Aaaah paint... yeah that's the fun bit ain't it? Took me months to figure out what colour I wanted only to end up a slightly deeper shade of what was on there already... ha

Doing it yourself?

I had a look back through your thread and I reckon a black plastic tyre hugging front mudguard shouldn't detract from the looks and you might even be able to mount it to the brace to make for easy mounting. Just a thought anyway...

The plan for mine is ready for registration by the end of the month but I expect to have to wait until pay day mid December to actually get it registered... should be able to squeeze a shake down ride around the block before then though I hope ;)
 
Re: Sachs 650 Street tracker/ Video !!Well sort of !!

Iv still got the front fender and will fabb that to fit, im hoping to give the Sachs a shake down in the next week or so !!!!
 
Re: Sachs 650 Street tracker/ Last leg

Nice video. it's got a pretty snappy throttle response. Looks like it's going to be a real 'point and squirt' machine :)
 
Re: Sachs 650 Street tracker/ Decals,front fender

Just an idea for the tank decal what do you think!! (only hand done the 650 bit)

Re: Sachs 650 Street tracker/ Decals,front fender

Yeah I like that decal, definitely pretty cool :D

And should be a good deal with the front guard too.

What colour are you going with? I imagine black would take your eyes away from it and it shouldn't detract from the tracker style then, need to see a full side shot though... colour coded could be nice as well I'm guessing...
 
Re: Sachs 650 Street tracker/ Decals,front fender

thanks pete, ya will go with the blue and white, will take some more pics with it painted and fitted.
(not sure what shade of blue yet but it will be lighter then that)
Your nearly finished i see (good tips on the oil as well)
 
Re: Sachs 650 Street tracker/ Decals,front fender

Cool, that should look good :D


Yeah, nearly done and even closer after today... just gotta get that seat back!


The oil's something I picked up over on the GSR, can't take any credit for that ;)
 
Re: Sachs 650 Street tracker/ more front fender pics

painted with rattle can just to get an idea of the finish (still needs a bit of sanding)

Mate she looks great! Well done!

You gonna get some video of the shake down run?

I'm nearly there but don't really have a safe shake down run area... may need to do a dodgy couple of laps around the block :eek:
 
Re: Sachs 650 Street tracker/ last bits before the shake down !!!
