Tony! Dude, you forgot to put any carbs on the bike! Tony! Look at the pics! I swear! Really! REALLY! You FORGOT THE CARBS!!!!!

Does anyone have Tony's cell number? I gotta call him! If he starts out cross country on that bike with no carburetors, well, well....

I need to make another pot of coffee!
 
TonyC Don't believe him those carbs are just a pain, always needing fiddling, run without em. Sharp bike, get r done n ride!
 
Travis,
Nice work on the back end and I like that you left some space behind the engine too. Is it painted yet?

Thanks. And nope, almost a year later and it still looks pretty much the same. I'm just not happy with the way it looks so I keep changing stuff. I have another tank I want to use, plan on redoing the seat rails (again) and want to rake the front a little to balance it out. I'm not sure it'll ever get done. :laugh:
 
hey guys. new here... heres my current project. sorry its an xs750 not 650, but whatever. pics with 2 different tanks. 1 is off a honda i have in the garage, the other is a king sporty. havent made up my mind yet, but tomorrow night something is gonna be on there. as soon as this is done im startin my 650. got some ideas floatin around my gearbox and hope they transfer well into steel

I aways loved the 3 cylinder XS750/850's. Had one way back. Only problem they jump out of 2nd gear. Understand there is a shim remedy that is failry easy to do. Other than that it was a rock sold bike. There's one in my part of the work I can pick for real cheap engine has blown rod, but comes with a spare engine. I might be tempted.
 
Heres a bobber that I built with my Father in law. He may have posted it here, but im not sure. I made all the billet aluminum stuff. Forwars, fender struts, batt mounts, etc.etc
