MI Blessing of the Bikes XS pics.

[savage454]

I went to the blessing of the bikes and was suprised to see these bikes in the judging ring. They were in a sea of builit barges. There was also a really nice stock xs1b I didn't get a picture of. It was a cool event, it was on the short side but it was cool. I met some pretty cool guys there too.

If any of these bikes belong to forum members, nice job fellahs.

The red tank/white frame bike has a 70 or 71 engine. If you look at the head, the thrre bolt valve adjuster cover gives it away. On the 72 engine they changed it to the 4 bolt cover so the decompressor could be used. They just left the 4 bolt cover even after doing away with the decompressor.
Number 9 custom has the 4 bolt cover so that is 72 or later enginge.
