A couple sets of 75b and all years TX/XS 650 rear wheel bearings arrived this afternoon.I’m definitely guilty of being STUPID.Some day, I’ll get smarter with my thread posts.OR NOT.🤝

A light fine media blast of inner rim,inner hub,and applied hammered finish to hub.First polishing of outer brake plate and hub.I’ve found by a light blasting of inner rim allows an easier inspection.Stripping rim factory clear and initial polishing next.

😂

I see there really are other crazy notions that people do when they’re mind is full of motorcycle ideas.Why not I guess.Might be a little bumpy though.Lol

Well now that’s about as cool as cool can be!

Seemingly as the aging process speeds up it seems most the ole pals with similar interests and projects have passed or farther away.Just nice to follow along here so many people of different areas and ages projects and rides.👍

Good to hear.Was thinking about your 75 you were working on a while back just wondering how it’s going. The motor work you’d started was interesting to me.Enjoy the Riding 👍

I was just wondering.Thanks

I’m just curious of course of his health first,has anyone heard from him?Does he have a different name here?Just curious.

What a great gift!

Spring fever here so ordered some generic number plates and put them on.Been a back burner thought for a senior class flat track ride at Davenport or somewhere one day before I get to far into being a senior.lol.Hopefully the number plates fire me up to get back to finishing the original motor...

I agree.A true “Man of his Word.” I wanted to buy the front as well but he said you had wanted it. I surely had no qualms with that.Glad you got it. I too am impressed with XS650 Direct spokes and other parts.Fair prices,excellent prompt service.

After completing the 75b front end redo this close to riding season I didn’t want to remove,relace and redo the original rear wheel until winter. I had no worthy spares left and was able to purchase a worthy candidate 75b rear wheel from Halfmile.Quite a pleasure to speak to Phil and purchase...

Or Star Black.

The seat passenger strap always holds so much vital information.
