Nice bike, looks great. What bike did the tank come off, or is it a custom job? Like what you did with the lights also.

that's the one problem with most of the chopped XSs, big empty hole behind the rear frame tube, that fills it out nicely I suppose it's just a jack shaft assembly, the rear tire/wheel doesn't look like it's to much wider but it could be used for rear chain offset

Hi,newxs650
the rear wheel is a standard xs650 130-90-16 but i can put like 150 or more,
the jackshaft setup is for the softail swingarm pivot bolt alignement only and the long chain (before i put a jackshaft about 140 links)
