Under Budget
It’s a 1980 xs650 special. I bought it from a guy at work that had lost interest in his cafe bike project. I wanted to do a very low budget rat bike chop…with a bit of Bratstyle inspiration. To date I have stayed under budget, but I would like to hardtail this in the future.
Mods and add-ons are as follows. Relocated top shock mounts, trimmed unwanted tabs, epoxy coated wheels, bicycle pedal on kicker, wrapped header pipes with flare tips, new Biltwell bars, kickstand, solo seat, headlight and 10″ short shocks. ” Spoke
This bike is at about the same stage of development as my 650..
Looks good man. I dig the bear trap pedal kicker.. Thanks . Send in more pics as it evolves..
