custom

After having build a XS750(tripple) caféracer it was time for something different. Made in holland :) please give me jour comments

Whats up guys. Here is my Xs650 build. Started with just a motor and a Ardcore hard tail frame. Slowly but surly getting the thing together piece by piece. Basically all thats missing is a bunch of little stuff such as the linkage kit and wheel spacers and i need to wire it up, but other than...

I am looking into options for something around a 3" wide, 21" Heritage 64 spoke front wheel to use as a rear wheel on a project. Online searches haven't turned up much along the lines of someone being able to make me a custom wheel. If anyone knows a company that could make me a custom wheel...

Hey all, I'm going to modify my '75 a little bit over the winter into something of a cafe racer. I have a seat on the way, gonna put some drag bars on it, and I was probably gonna get some taller shocks. 1. What are the stock shock lengths? (I think I heard about 11 or 11.5"?) 2. I've been...

Hi Guys Apologies for the basic question but i just want confirmation. Ive never done a full electrical layout before sooooo....What stuff typically goes on electrics board? Space is limited and i made custom plate that mounts under the seat. I just want to make sure i havn't overlooked any...

I'm looking to put as wide and tall a tire my stock mag rims will take. I am stretching the rear 3 inches, so I have room. I was wondering what anyone has been able to fit. I will have disc brakes, and am looking to go for an aggressive look for the tires so if you know of any, then great. Also...

I made up some tach deletes a while back, I don't plan to make any more but I do still have some to sell. This is a delete, you will need to remove the the stock drive cap, gear and *washer*. NO ORING will be included with them, picture is for reference only. Rules: Every 30 entries will net...

Hola XS freaks! I'm going to chop up my '82 heritage special and i'm going to make it one hell of a bad ass bike! I was planning to start the build late this fall. But when i was riding yesterday the bike started to be a bitch to me so I tore her apart today! I just couldn't wait to...

Fast & Flow will be all about long, sleek, low and flowing lines with a little bit of an aggressive edge to it. The donor bike I found sitting in a guy's garage, no carbs, tank and a few missing parts here and there. Brought it home for $700 only to find it needs an OOP (out-of-province)...

I bought this 1980 xs650 and my goal is to make it into one of the brat style bikes. If anyone has any good books/websites/videos that can help me out with that please let me know.

I bought an EMGO Viper cafe fairing (this one to be specific) to put on my '79, knowing it would require some modification and fabrication to mount. Received it today, and two things are immediately apparent: 1. I'm going to have to do some "body work" on the fairing to get it to fit...

hi, just wanted to share with everyone how i reshaped and covered an old special seat i had laying around. here is the before pic: i'm not a huge fan of the double bubble seat and i had another ratty seat laying around. figured i would try to customize it a bit...

So I finished my first build in spring and been riding all summer. After a lot of carb work details to follow my bikes starts and rides smooth until mid to full throttle on each gear. Where it sounds like choking out. Here's what I have done. 77 xs650 stock 38 carbs w new mikes XS rebuild kit...

Hey dudes, I'm fairly new to the xs650 world but have been riding for the better part of my life (currently own a 48 sporty bobber as well. I've owned this brat style 650 for a bit now and saw the community here and figured I'd join in. Seems like a decent lot! She's currently up for sale as...

Hey guys, I have an 03 xs650 custom and looking to make my first bobber. I hate buying things straight off the shelf because I like being different. :banghead: My question is, how much clearance should I allow between the rear fender and tire for suspension travel? I don't want the fender to be...

I have a 1981 xs650, i just installed the standard pamco ignition and a PMA from hughs, and with that i had a capacitor from TC BROS, which has a button and im curious as to what that button does, but anyway my bike worked fine the first two weeks after install the all of the sudden it started...

I'm not running any gauges anymore except a voltmeter and neutral light, so thought I would move my ignition switch. I'm pretty happy with the new location although my bracket is not perfect - will have to do a new one at some point. This left a hole in my headlight that i sealed with sugru...
