Something I'am building 75xs

[dr mac]

Started this over at TCU for the BBO.
Hope to have it running real real soon.
Will be going with the single point conversion in a few weeks ( freaken weather keeping me broke) Along with a PMA conversion.
And yes that is the intake running in the middle of the frame for a 1 into 2 intake manifold.

I'am not sharp enough to do a photo paint on the forks ( can not decide on the color ) or just leave them alone.

Oh this is my first complete build .
Here is a link to the album for it .

That's cool looking. How do you combat the engine vibration for the intake thru the frame?

I left a little play between the frame and the intake runner. . And if the need arises I'll be able to enlarge the frame piece . I do not think it will be a problem or one that would be a hard fix .

Been following your BBO thread on TCU!

I like it!! Great idea for the intake. Much better design for the single carb instead of cutting the frame. I like how some have it off to one side, but I would, somehow, break it off. I prefer the centered design

To be honest I cut the frame in a way to build it so the carb was out of the way . As I'am sure it will go on it's side at some point in time .
The cutting of the Frame was really a easy thing to do . I believe I have about one hour in cutting, grinding and tack welding the parts together.

Yours looks great. I am referring to the ass chopped frames that look like crap just to get it to fit.

Now if I can make work the alt off of a 600 seca xj I would be in heaven

carb installed so I can get everything going , cables, carb mount , etc.

Oh and the breather is off a tiller engine or ? . Carb has a flange added to it now . So breather bolts to the flange.
