Well here she be. I already got into it a bit with some of the small things. First things first, I replaced the tires, then coated the front fender, side covers, and gas tank with Rustoleum Truck Bed Liner. Other than general 20 year maintenance, I put Amsoil in the thing and adjusted the carb needles, blah blah blah. I can't say what all I've done since I can hardly recall it anyway. As of now I am ready to tear off the ol' trombone/oxyfuel cut off mufflers with a set of Thrush 1.750 I/O glasspacks. I'm from a quite engine and or exhaust savvy family as my dad built his own engine dyno and I've helped run it as a middleschooler and up. I won't say I'm an expert by any means. This XS650 I have will be none other but a one of a kind machine. Tracker, cafe racer, etc, these will not be what I'm going for. I will be building a machine that is none but my own personal means of satisfaction. One of a kind! And I'm happy to be one of the family!
