XS650 Addict
Picked up this '81 XS from a buddy at work, he had it running for a while, but could never get it going quite right. I've been talking about building something for years and he has too many projects, so I bought it off of him and brought it home.
Tore it down and started working on some design ideas. RD400 tank and 21" front wheel.
Have some unique ideas for the rear suspension, hopefully I can get them to work.
Frame pretty much as it sits now..
Plans so far, keep stock front end with 21" wheel, rebuild carbs and motor, very leaky and had been around a lot of moisture at some point, design and fabricate a rear subframe for seat and mounting of rear suspension, monoshock. So, like the title says...Here goes nothing!
