Kenny Roberts tribute bike

[Phyberoptic]

Here is my current tracker with a Kenny Roberts theme paint...

funny, now that it's nearing completion, it won't fire up on the starter... needs to be kicked. Maybe I'd best put some muffs on for more backpressure?

I ran short pipes like that for a long time, just increase your jet sizes until it runs perfectly and the plugs are tan.

Thanks,... they are pretty freaking loud however, so I may put a muff of some type on to keep the neighbor relations in good standing.

haha...I read the title too fast and thought it said Kenny Rogers tribute. I was trying to figure out how the paint scheme was a tribute to him...lol

Very cool man! Since I stopped road racing I lost touched with the whole scene. Is Kenny Jr. still racing?

what brand is that tank and from where?

I think they are early Omar's, bought them in white from a guy who had them in the back of his garage... needed to be notched to fit the xs, so I'm not positive. but tank fit the xs stem and tank mounts perfectly so I assume they were made for the xs650.
