Can't decide which bikes throwin' shade on which....Would you believe the tank is almost a perfect fit on a XS2 frame. Cut here a nip and tuck there could work.
Nope, the way it was built.. The wishbone and headlight need to be re-chromed someday.I was just taking a closer look, that is quite a unique headlight mount and that headlight shell, is that new? It’s so clean!

Hurricamaha? Yamacane?
I would probably try to do some of the things I did 30+ years ago on it. That would not end well for me. With age comes wisdom, some things are best lived in the past.
You made my point.Yeah - goofy unwise things like riding 700 miles in the rain and finishing up with 11+ miles of dark, wet, twisty mountain road, in the fog...at 2:00 AM.
Hey waidaminit....you did that THIS year!!!!
You made my point.
I've seen the longer arms for sale. When I rode it years ago I replaced the controls with Magura stuff. If I remember correctly the front brakes, clutch and throttle worked much better. Going to give theses a try again.I heard or read a few years back, a common mod to the front brake was to extend the arms an inch. It gave better leverage when they were used.
You were clear. I've seen the longer arms. They give you better leverage on the front brakes. From what I remember the Magura did a good job.Sorry I wasn't clear. I meant the arms at the drum.
... I checked the clutch lever against the clutch lever on my XS2 and it had 5mm more inner cable travel than the XS2 lever...
