Very nice, Carbon. Got some close ups of those exhaust extensions? I'd love to do something like that - it solves the issue of the tight space behind the FC linkages.
And the bars are unique. Great job!

Took her out moto-camping in the Texas hill country. Beautiful ride out there.

Finally sorted really well, bs34's. 1 up on the pilot, needles shimmed just under half a step, 142.5 mains, uni pods. Autolite 63's, (might go colder for hot weather. Floats set 2mm lower than spec. 2 piston brembo. Finally got all the leaks fixed....blocked off one breather outlet and no more crazy oil mist!!
Still wanna do a single cvk34 carb, fork gaitors, tach delete and paint my second set of tins.

In the learning stage
I know ive posted this in here before. and you guys prob dont wannt see it again. but I think its finally done and im happy with where it is now. So it might stay like this for a while. Plus its running great (knock on wood)
My 1970 XS1.
This is an early 1970 matching engine to frame, only 13800 miles.
The bike is in very good condition and is virtually a one owner so all the history is there from new.
Only parts I require now is a rear fender, rear fender support, turn signals, rear light and bracket and a set of standard bars.
So come on guys search through all your early parts, up to xs2 rear fender will fit.
Another old girl saved.
