Here is my 77 XS650 I built. It took alittle over 3 weeks to build this, most of the time was waiting for parts or the powdercoating.
I raked the frame 9 degrees over stock, 4" over forks, rims and hubs powdercoated, spoke painted with caliper paint. Lower fork legs powdercoated and all mounts removed. TCbros hartail kit, forward controls, battery box. New aftermarket sportster tank powdercoated. I made the seat. Pamco ignition, amc voltage regulator, radio shack rectifier, kick only, Mikuni 34mm carbs, suicide shift, rear brake only, modified CB350 scrambler pipes. I'm working on a 68 Triumph T100R now, then a Iron Head sportster chopper/bobber.

Man, that's t*ts! Nice posture, indeed! I am especially partial to your use of flat bars on this type of bike.
