well it's about time i got back to my cafe project, It's a 78' xs750 triple i got the bike cheap and was plan'n on a fast flip for some cash on craigslist but when the guy came to look at it he took home my sporty instead. so now im go'n to keep this around and play with it till it sells

the bike b4 i unloaded she had all the racks and bags a touring guy would want.

Like the way you took your build. You think about going with an exhaust header from mac and just making the muffler work with that?

im try'n to do this one on a tint budget plus i build all the pipes for the bobs and chops that i do so a 3into1 isnt hard. i'll only be use bout the 1st 6" of the stock pipe anyway. i want it to look like a modern naked sport bike. the mac is the way i'd go if i didnt like build'n pipes thow
 
Watching this build closely- I've got an 850 Special daily rider and truly love the triples- great sound and built to last. Looking tasty.
 
i got the all lights in and made some new mounts
