Looking for a XS750 tank in good condition.

grizld1, I do appreciate you taking time and measuring the nipple for me. In my build, I'm going for a very specific "look" and I need brass spoke nipples. The chart in my original post is from a German company ( https://www.wws-speichen.de/sortiment/ ) that makes custom spokes and nipples. So...

What is the spoke nipple size for 1975 19" front and 18" rear wheels. I'm trying to source a custom set of nipples but I'm having a hard time with sizes, some are listed as gauge, some are listed with barrel diameter and length Thanks

I did try different bulbs/colors. However low voltage #74 bulbs are most appealing to me -kind of Edison bulb look. I may try the bulbs with the colored bulb condoms, if I find them somewhere.

Thank you Mailman for your comment. This is the type of work I enjoy the most.

Gauges are done... Night view with electroluminecent tape on. Indicators On.

If you are to sell those wheels I may be interested if the price is right

OK

I can do $100 shipped

Small progress today, melted some brass chips into round rings to have a stock to make speedo and tacho bezels. A bit oversized - I only had a big size mold.

Next step to complete the indicator light box was to drill and tap the holes for the lenses. I do have a DRO on my mill , but still like to make manual marks on the pieces I work with, just for the confirmation. In order to round off the corners I had to use my BIG rotary table. First step...

I've completed the work on the indicator light lenses x 3, including the polish on the inside of the barrel. It was time to start with the box that will hold the lenses. First step was to square off some random round brass stock. In the next step I had to make two pieces out of one. I...

The work with the gauges continues, today I've made a light indicator. This is just a test piece as the final one will need some additional work. It started with a bar stock which I've threaded to 9/16 18. I did 4 of those as I will need them later. In the next step I've a made a...

That would be me, I'm still making a lot of custom brass motorcycle parts. This is my personal project, it would be closer to a cafe racer. My avatar is the bike I've build few years ago.

I have a DRO set up on my mill which has an option to create holes on circle.

I do have a background in the industrial design dating back to the 80's and I made the needles to look like carb needles.

I'm fairly new to the brass etching but my process is based on many few youtube videos about pcb board etching. My printer is a cheap one from Amazon brother laser printer HL-L2300D around $50 with a starter cartridge. Settings are below in a picture/ you want the print as dark and intense as...

Trip meter reset knob was also discolored and not in great shape so it was time to make a new one. Turning the knob shaft. Milling the grooves Finished knob Last thing I did today was to test the lighting for the gauges. I considered many different options however, electroluminescent...
