The frame is on its way. Dont know about the color scheme yet, but i do know that i was wanting something different than just a set of spraypainted black mags, nothing wrong with them just going for something different. Love’m or hate’m there mine.

THAT’S WHAT I AM IN COMPLETE AGREEMENT WITH.

REALLY what are you some snot nose little prospect or even less like a hang around? Get real this is no the 70’s and if a man rides on two wheels it don’t matter what he rides he build and is proud of it. I don’t see your bike posted. If you can’t say something nice, just keep it to yourself. Dustyroads 1%er WA. state

That’s my honest and humble opinion. I stand by my previous statement.

It’s just a rudely expressed opinion. I doubt there are many here that couldn’t respond intelligently to thoughtful critique. But, just like posting a bike here leaves one open to REAL criticism, posting a rudely expressed opinion leaves the opiner open to rebuttal. Punks and trolls should be recognized for what they are.

Besides, it’s fun.

If someone thinks it’s gay, let them think it’s gay. When you post pics of your bike on here it’s free reign. Get over it ya buncha pusses. To each their own. Criticism is a bitch.

I’m not knocking the baggers, hell he may own 3 or 4, jus sayn’.

Not many people would post a video of a true cold start, complete with a stall upon gear engagement. But any of us with XS’s have experienced it, lol. BTW, I love the tank, what is it? Very smooth looking.
