Hey fellas,
Just wanted to do a little intro since I'm new here. Got the idea to build a bike so I started lurking around a few places. I decided on an XS and picked up an '81 basket case for cheap a few weeks ago. This will be a winter project so I haven't started much with it but the PO did a good job at tearing shit up so this will probably be a long slow process.
So, I currently live in Ottawa Ontario if any locals want to give a shout out.
previous bikes include an MX80 when I was a wee lad and then a couple crotch rockets. '87 GSXR1100
'89 GSXR750
And I know
so here is my pile of junk before I get started.
On order already I have an Ardcore hardtail and a cole foster tank. Debating between clip ons or drag bars. Probably going to rock the mag wheels, need new tires. All wiring needs to be done etc, etc. Once I get working I'll probably start a build thread.
