:agree: cuz i have some off the wall shit set for this one. oh and the i think the tcbro frame just isn't go'n to cut it. after look'n at it the last few days i just can get into that bottom rail no matter how much i try to make myself

I just bought my 650, not planing anything radical, not going to win, but I'd like to participate in the build off for grins.

it doesnt have to be a crazy build just wat you want to build so you tell me what class and your in.

lol woot long haul award!!!....seriously though this is my first venture into a custom bike...or actually working on one at all...I'm still looking for parts...if anyone has a lead on a xs750 tank I would greatly appreciate someone helping me out =D.

Found some on ebay...but I would rather go through one of the forum guys as I have had some bad experiences with ebay in the past.

if i was part'n my 750 out the tank would be your but i just sold my sporty 2day so im go'n to make a full on cafe out of my 750.

"long hual"award for the guy that travels the most miles to be at the show!

We could save a bunch of time and money and just ship me the trophy :) just sayn....big plans for this next one!

we could but i have to have something to do over the winter :laugh: and i think there's go'n to be a few bad ass chop's in this one and thats y im set'n this up!
 
It is an 850 tank...but from my understanding its the same as the 750...Hey noob question for you...the 850/750 tanks are vacuum fed...does it matter if my bike is originally non vacuum fed to the carbs? I assume that it does matter and i will need to switch out the petcocks to a non vacuum fed petcock.
 
there the same just diffrent bore i think about the only thing i know bout the triples are they are cheap and crazy fast i got mine for under a grand and it will do 90mph at the top of 2nd gear thats why im make'n a cafe out of it, and i think your go'n to have to switch those petcocks out. i only use none vac. set ups my 750 is the first bike i had thats set up that way.

I am in northern IN and trying to get my build on track for a spring debut..... all it is currently is the front frame loop and the engine....

So let's pencil me in on the rider/driver side..... if not too late.

Ok im get'n things around and im take'n a head count NEED to know who's still in and what class. so to a EVERYONE in this thing NEEDS to send me a PM with the class your in ASAP. i may have the camp spot and "must do" ride set i have to double check. if so it's a nice little spot just outside a tiny ass town maybe about 15miles from a hole in the wall bar that will be the meeting spot that your scooter must make the trip from there's all kind of good back road's around there also
I now that it's a pain in the ass but even if i've talk'ed with you about this i'd still like you to send a pm
