Sucks getting old ;) I say that every day............. Hope you feel better! and bike looks great so far!

Well your older like me so you remember Rat Fink.........well Ed Roth was the flake guy way back when and I wanted flake on this tank.......found his kid still has the business and sells paint in bomb cans https://rothmetalflake.com/ was not cheap but in the end I like it. I was even able to get...

Well wasnt a 650 but at least an XS..........my painter flaked on me so decided to try one myself........well it was all bomb can and actually turned out ok for a side yard job with no booth........

Dang that seems a little on the rough side.......when polishing I have never used a scothbright pad. I have a sissle wheel that I run on things with different rouges then go all out in the end with a pad and jeweler rouge. Looks good Jim but not sure if that scotchbright adds more scratches...

Sweet ride and well keep it............... Would love to find something local like that but they are few and far between............you did mention riding it throughout the ;) good luck!

Late to the party but great stand and a smokin deal on the carbs........... I have a small plasma at work and love it. Has come in handy many times and sure beats a torch.......

I agree.........I had Rick do a set and they turned out great.

Looks sweet!

Nope :laugh2: had all this green stuff growing on it when I picked it up..........its called moss we have a lot of it up here in the NW ;) The whole bike had it on it but for the price I needed a new project to tinker with.........still looking for a 650 :rolleyes: seems lately prices have...

Looks great was it shot out of a gun or ? Can I send you my latest project motor to clean up :D

Thanks and that's the wifes 400.................I cant find a good 650................

Looks good :thumbsup: not totally factory but a few simple mods that make it yours.

I like it but don't like the fact of no title.........chasing paperwork and I don't even live in the state its titled in.

Yep looks great Jim! All the fenders I have are in great shape but have swirls I don't think there is a way to avoid it.......now pitting on the forks well that's another story......like stated before these bikes are 40 yrs old......hell we have a few pits and scratches to but who is...

Yes but sucks as I am in one state and title lost in another......says registered owner is girlfriend so paperwork wouldn't be a pain but just the hoops at the DMV suck around here.....plus I want spokes :laugh2: seems like every XS I pick up has mags..........3 400s a 750 and a 1100.....
