Ranch Kid from way back,.... that got Old !
Nice looking bike BarnCat !
very nice intake manifold as a final product ! well done ! I am a fan of single carbs on twins because there are less things to go wrong
Never had one that had more performance that duel carbs though, so your combination is a good one !
I really like the stripped down XS this way... I wish you could weigh it and tell us how much it weighs ! in My view the XS650 is way too frigging heavy, it should never have been manufactured that heavy, but they did and now we all suffer because of the excessive weight issue.
.... But I do love my electric starter ! and wouldn't part with it ! I had to laugh to myself with the upside down handle bars as I tried that 50 years ago on a small bike and it worked quite well ! I found them a bit too low however and just went with a straight pipe and used that for years.
