I want that rear tire! I have been looking for this for a long time. Shinko makes one like this but they only list a 16 inch.

Ya that’s him. I remember the wiring on the bike when he had…. it was horrible. I like the paint you did on the fender and tank. Mine should be wired up this weekend and ready to role her shortly.

Duke- I guess it is the bike. I bought it from a guy in chesapeake that worked for a wrecker company. I have done alot to it since I bought it. I had to rewire the whole bike, rebuilt the front forks, customized the exhaust (not shown in the pic) it is 2 into 1 now, and put heay duty clutches with stiffer springs and all the stuff you can read and see from my post. Do you still have an XS?

Thanks for the comments. Steve- my friend did the jetting at his shop. I think he just drilled the main jet out until it was the correct size. I will find out. LiL grommit- Yes I built the exhaust it is 1 7/8 od pipe. I used the stock exhaust flange. Flying Imp- yes it is an 18″ wheel. I am not sure of the brand name I will look. Fanoboss- The brake line was on the bike when I got it. It had apes on it. My friend is makeing me a new as we speak. I will post new pics when she is completed. She is about 85% done now. I have a few more things to do to her. Air filters, brake line, rear disk conversion, afew other things. Once again thanks.
