    81 XS650 Cafe "low rider" in Denver Co

    I,m in to hotrods as well and all of my cars are low. I love the look of a low car or bike, but with my cars you might scrape the pavement but with your bike I think its going to be your body scraping the pavement. I really dig the look but I think I would raise it a bit. Just my two cents.

    I got my motor back from a friend that was going to put valve seals in it but when he opened up the top end he found out I had a scored piston. We bored it out 50mm to a total c.c. of 663.
