Let's See The XS's

[djdiablo]

thats a great looking bike ....what are your plans for it ? ride it as is or mod it

I plan to ride as is for a while, who knows, I have a compressor, some guns and a few cans of flake sitting in my garage though!

lookin good critic.
Hope you go for a full leather seat rather than one of those dodgy diy f/glass monstrocities

ha thanks, ya itll be similar to the motolanna/hellboy seat.

here's my effort, just the wiring to do
it's got a 750 barrel, re phased crank, 2" extended forks, jacked up rear shocks, Pamco ignition, debadges tank, twin Brembo upgrade & oil cooler. Going for a practical every day Bratstyle

Mattp2510, that's an interesting effort on the clutch mechanism.

 

[mattp2510]

Its a HALCO 8 plate conversion, I believe it was made for WASP XS grass track sidecar outfits

 

[Steewhoop]

My green bike, which was wrecked last fall... rebuilding it now

 

[Downeaster]

Purdy, Steewhoop! Love the color.

 

[Steewhoop]

The green is BMW British racing green and the cream is a Chrysler 300 color.

The BSA Spitfire seats looks OK on the XS. I think.

Thanks gggGary...i had to convince everyone here that it would work. Glad ya think it does!

 

[peanut]

Done!!

yeah that colour scheme is gorgeous !
Just goes to show what an improvement can be made by highlighting the frame and finding a complimentary colour for the metalwork

 

[Stone Co Rambler]

A set of knobbies plus a lot of throttle and the XS can hold it's own in the back woods of Arkansas, or better yet....the "driveway" in/out of my place!
