My 1980 budget-build flat tracker that I run in the Heavy Vintage class. Lotsa fun!

Thank you for the reminder, @Kevin Werner. A worthy calendar bike, @JesseeS.

Great picture!

 

[Its been a long time]

Not my XS650, a couple of pictures shamelessly borrowed from eBay. Quite a nice customised XS650. Metisse frame built by John Hand Racing (John Hand used to work at Wasp building frames). You can't see it on these pictures but John Hand's bronze welding on frames is a work of art. I can't speak for the quality of the build but the price asked on eBay doesn't seem outrageous.

Nice looking build. I find it interesting that the bottom triple tree has the pinch bolts on the front side of the forks.

Just maybe the forks get a little more steering lock to lock with a fat tank.

My xs650 1980, building a caferacer. Lot of work done, and lot to come.
