xs 650

this is about what she looked like when i picked her up from st george a little over a year ago.












i just like this pic for some reason, this was the day i brought my bike out of my little shed and over to my father in laws (that snow it from last winter). he has all the tools and i have nada. he is working on a vw bug rat rod, i'll have to put some pics up later.









this is not too long after it got to my inlaws...we used the front fender for the rear, made the fender struts from some hollow round bar scrap i got from metal mart and got the back half of the exhaust done at some exhaust shop in draper...that tank and bars have been been swapped out








this was taken a month or so ago, i was bumming about it being almost a year and still not done with the bike, so i got her out and fred flinstoned around the drive way for a bit...you can see the different tank, some small mustang tank off ebay...and the new z bars, another ebay score...and also the 70's blazer hub caps i cut up to cover the ugly mag wheel






this is the most recent pic...took the rear wheel off so i could cut off a chunk of the axle plate, so that i could hide that honkin caliper a bit...and i changed my mind about the green, might have someone pinstripe it like it is...who knows...
