The Slow and Unsteady Progress of my XS Build
Here I am. I've been an admirer of 70's motorcycles for some time now and been bringing old Honda's back from the dead for about 5 years. All this time hiding my admiration for the XS650 twins from my SOHC4 brethren for fear of being ousted from "the club".
I can conceal my love no more!
I've finally acquired the project bike I've been searching for, the XS650, and I'm looking forward to digging into her and seeing if I can bring her back from the dead as well. With the wealth of knowledge on this forum and what seems to be an enjoyment of sharing info, it should be a fun ride.
Since she is currently in boxes, I don't have a pic that would be of interest to anyone yet. Soon I will be reassembling the engine from my tear-down, I'm sure I will have some questions, and I'll add some pics then.
Looking forward to this.
