Hello all,
Recently I've become very interested in making my xs650 into something of a cafe racer. Unfortunately, college takes away most of money so I don't have a whole hell of a lot to spend. With that being said, I have a few questions for you.
1. Cafe seats are expensive. Would it be much cheaper to make own? And if so, how involved of a process is it?
2. Are rear sets pretty much required? I realized it would probably make the bike more comfortable, but would the bike be comfortable enough with the stock pegs?
3. What kind of handlebars are all of you running? I'm thinking clubmans, what do those of you that use them think?
Thanks!
