"If it's got tits or tires its going to give you trouble" Uncle Steve

Ok, so here is another one. It started out as an 81'. [/IMG]

[/IMG] My version of a Brat. Its started out as an 81'.

Yes it was. I have been out of it. I have not been on here for a while. I posted the pics that I have. I need to get it out and cleaned up to get some good shots of it. Turned out how I wanted it to more or less. Now I know what to do on the next one. :thumbs-up: When I got the tins back...

Count me in. I could always use a new set of rims.

I also have one in good condition if you need it.

Thank you. I also cant wait for it to be done.:) The painter I had set up fell through. So, now I need to figure out what I am going to do with that. I have painted before but it is not my favorite thing to do. Hopefully I figure it out soon.

Got the covers all polished & on, the side mount plate on, shift & brake linkage done & kickstand shorted for a final time and on. Also, striped and primed the tank. Now just need to figure out who will paint it and it will be done. Sure! [/IMG] [/IMG] [/IMG] [/IMG] [/IMG]

Thanks. Something else I have to check before getting it on the road.:thumbsup:

The cover that has the cam/ignition parts?

I don't know everything about the XS or I am just a dumbass. Either way what part is that?

While reading all the other posts on this I decided to look at mine a little more closely. I realized that what I posted does work but I think the the indicator light stays on and only flashes when you turn on a signal. Didn't notice at first as I was just happy it flashed. I might try the...

I made the mounting plates, using the original boots as a template. I don't have a legit tubing bender so I bought J-bent header tubing from Summit Racing which I used for the exhaust and intake. I also bought a exhaust reducer that took the two pipes to single pipe the size of the carb from...

No, it's one I built. Made it out of the same tubing as I did the exhaust pipes.

I makes for a fun ride, I guess. :shrug:

Got the Pamco in & the intake wrapped & back on. [/IMG] [/IMG]

Is it fairly easy to get on and off the bike? You have pic of it on the bike?

Tried it, once. :thumbsup: I put together a Sportster hardtail with a DNA Springer front end this summer. Took it on a test drive around the block. Got it out on a main road to get a little speed, had to let off the throttle and lean over the bars to check out the front wheel. I thought I...

I try. :) Actually had Rebel shocks on when I welded everything up that where an inch shorter than what I have on now. They were really stiff and had no travel which I know she would have hated. So, it is now up a little higher.

The fender? It is about as far forward as it would go with the R6 integrated taillight under the fender, any further back and there would be clearance issues with the tire. Plus I wanted a bike with suspension. The fender dropped another 3" would leave me less than 2" of travel before bottoming...
