hey everybody just a new guy to the forum wanted to post my build to get suggestions and opinions from ppl as this is my first XS build just a over view of my plans Im starting with a 77 frame having it hard tailed with a 4inch drop & a 2inch stretch having wise guy customs do it (please let me know if anybody has any experience with these guys) putting a DNA 80 Spoke 18X10.5 on the back ( have to use a jackshaft) also by wise guy putting a springer front with a DNA 80 spoke on the front 21X3 running avon tires looking for a 81-82 motor for it will post up some pics soon I work alot so progress will be a little slow

yamachop did a 250 with a jackshaft, and i think someone around here makes jack shafts just for us.

yeah it might be wise guy customs he is in washington if you happen to know the guy that has one and you ever talk to him ask if it was I have to ship my frame all the way there for this just hoping he's a stand up guy cause I lost my FZR to a shop for 4yrs plus a lot of $ like to nvr got it back

 

[rnonelower]

first 2 pics of rear wheel DNA 80 spoke & mounted 300 Avon tire will post more when I get more parts

 

[CDNTX650]

eeeeeeewh. wide tires look yuck.

I hope you dont weigh much...your gonna need all of that 40HP to spin that

 

[rnonelower]

more parts in had 21X3.5 front rim DNA to match back DNA calipers mesh sprocket to match rotors hoping to get frame back from Wise Guy Choppers thinking of cutting it up when I do to do some other changes my self

 

[rnonelower]

not worried about the weight of the tire to much hoping the hughes hand build rephased engine with the 750 bigger heads pistons port job the whole nine LOL will make up the difference

Is that a 7" stretch I am seeing in the last pic?

 

[XSJoel]

This looks like another wide tire XS650 hardtail I have seen on here.

 

[rnonelower]

no its a 4'' drop with a 2'' stretch just doing a small stretch and no additional rake on the front want it to be short
