My first build and first XS650

[GeorgeKillianLett]

Sorry to hear about the water damage!
Can't wait to see it with the tank on it! Great job!

Long time, no see. I finally got my carbs, air speed indicator, and some misc wiring. Here's where it stands. Sooooo close. Just a few things to finish. Dam thing is dusty already! Apparently it has been sitting too long.

Here are a few more. Air speed indicator and another sprocket for the chain due to clearance issues. It's inside the electrical box, but will be completely away and guarded from the wiring. Also, the remote master cylinder.

So much eye candy! love the details man and painting the engine covers to match the tank looks way better than the white.

Thanks! And i agree. The green looks way better. That cream color was too early on in the build.

dont know how i missed this build. dig the wild build! really like the hidden chain tensioner location!

 

[missile150]

Thanks. That top roller is just a guide. The tensioner is on the bottom of the frame.

Carbs installed and all wiring completed. I used a battery to check the lights, brakes, signals, but not the pamco yet. I just need to add oil and fuel and kick her over.

I also added a cool stainless steel crankcase breather instead of just a tube.

However, my throttle cable is sticking. I cleaned and greased the throttle, but now have to turn my attention to the 1-into-2 throttle splitter before the carbs. Soooooooo Excited!!!!!!

 

[missile150]

All done. And for sale. $3K obo. Only need to remove pin striped names from the tank.
