I decided to share a build that I did about 7yrs ago before I was a member on CF. It started out as a 79 XS650 special. I turned it into a modern street tracker. I still own and ride this bike one of my favorites. Here is a list of some of the mods that I can remember.
-01 R6 forks, brake calipers, master cylinder -Ducati 320mm rotors -Suzuki GS450 Tank -XB12 Shock -Yamaha XT550 modified swingarm -electronic ignition -PMA charging system.
I custom built the Tail, seat, rear frame, removable sub-frame, exhaust system, frt fender mount, and several other details.
Most of the black parts on the bike were powder coated. Went with the blue paint scheme to make it look more modern.
I have updated the Carbs since these pics to a set of re-jetted ninja 500 carburetors. Still have plans for a big bore kit and rephrased crankshaft.
