Been busy for a while, but i’m back on the project! Have the base for my frame jig built and painted. Got the chopper frame almost bare (only the motor left) and have the beginings of a street tracker XS frame ready to to throw the motor in so I have something to ride while the Re-Chopping continues. I’m sending in some new pix to show where i’m at… PS. I picked up 3 complete parts bikes on E-Bay last week so now I have 5 XS 650’s a 72,77,79,80 & 81. I guess you could call that XS to Excess!

Getting ready to kick it in to gear, I’m putting the drive train in a slightly modified stock frame just to ride. As I begin the Chopper Re- chop. I still need to build my frame jig but I’ve got all the goodies.
Wish me luck…….

Not a big fan of ridged swingarms. Just throws the whole geometry off. You do have a nice bike and I hope you enjoy it!
