XS650 Addict
Hey guys,
I bought my first xs650 about a year and a half ago. It was a 78 model project bike I snagged of craigslist. I signed up on here and asked some questions and began tinkering. A month or so in I had some personal issues that made me park my project for a while, just short of running, I think... Things have finally started looking up the last month or so and my bike and the direction I want to go with it has been on my mind a lot. Just getting it running is not my goal anymore. I want a real head turner and I think I'm on the way to achieving that. I havent got to spend a ton of time with it yet, an hour or so here and there the last couple weeks, but I'll fill you guys in and post pics. I am very new and learning when it comes to the mechanical side of things, so I welcome all feedback and ideas. Here is a pic from when I first brought my baby home.
