Sho-TymeXS
XS650 Enthusiast
Well, I've been messing around with XS650's for awhile now. Built a few with friends and started a few builds that got sold before finished. So I've been itching to finally build one for myself. Not to anyone else's standards or liking (too many build for customers). This itch went on for about 5 years as life continued to get in the way.
Last winter I picked up a KTM 125SX dirtbike frontend (with no bike to put it on in sight), and stored it away with several other parts I'd found at a deal to good to pass up.
It wasn't until about 2 months ago a 1983 XS feel into my lap for next to nothing. So here I go. Time to build the dike (one of the bikes) I've been dreaming about. Something to have fun on, ride hard, and simply enjoy without worries of extremely costly repairs like my 99 Harley Road King.
