I bought a 750 special with that seat on it once. For as ugly as it is, it wasn’t even comfortable. Why anyone would spend money on that rubbish is beyond me.

Where a project starts can be just as interesting as where it ends (if there is such a thing). We’re talking about a love affair with a bike that’s over 30 years old (and some pushing 40). You gotta start somewhere, and a forum like this, full of design concepts, is a fantastic resource. Just like rock & roll, there is no right or wrong, no rules, no limits or expectations. It’s about putting your creativity and your soul into your bike. And the only person you have to impress is the person you see in the mirror in the morning. Drool, build, and ride.

Same as always – I think it’s fun to see the xs650’s that are trashed along with ones that are rebuilt. And I’m sure lots of people reading this site can look at the picture and see the potential. Additionally, Frank took the time to send in the pictures and write a paragraph – so I posted it.. If you have specific bikes you want to see posted – send them in!

@ Schmeel – If you send a post in you should have gotten a confirmation e-mail. If you didn’t get the confirmation e-mail I didn’t get the pictures. Occasionally, when uploading 5 really large pictures some connections crap out and the pictures don’t get uploaded. It something I’ve been working on – but it also has to do with the users connection.

You can e-mail me the pictures and info directly if you’d like to:
