Really great work. Those fit perfectly. I'm really psyched to see this bike finished. (Beautiful welds, by the way.)

HTMoore,

The bike is looking good, brother. Keep at it! (Love that rear tire.)

One of your crappy, thrown together Bratstyle XS650s. Shocked

The term bobber has been used far longer than chopper, and it always meant removing or cutting off *excess* bits. You bobbed anything that would shed weight. That didn't mean cutting, altering and wel ...

You're welcome, brother. Thanks for sharing your build.

I didn't say it before, so... sweet job dishing the tank. And I like it just the way it is. the stripes look great with the dishing. And the whole bike... absolutely f*cking killer. One of the nicest ...

Dirka, it is part of the territory, and I'm for it. As I said, it was just an observation and in no way a criticism or discouragement. That being said, with it being 1.25" chromoly, that makes a world ...

Excellent! I was really hoping for some rake on this to even out the rear stretch.

Wow. Great eye for lines. Those rails are beautiful and the ends with the axle plate...smoooooth. Any chance of getting a close up of the axle plates?

The only problem I can see is that over time y ...

That's a good plan, toe. And once you have her running, you will find even more motivation to do the tank the way you want.

[quote="gordonscott"]Hey Roy, looked at top of page and thought "I know that house" Laughing

then found this thread Wink

So whats the plan with this one Question

I can see it now, Tuesday night meetings ...

You got to the first one before I did, Roy. Nice catch!

Hey Dirka, just checking in on your build. Hope it's going well. I don't know if I would go with a solid color on the stock tank. They're kind of blocky and removing the stripes might emphasize that f ...

Keep at it. I'm following your build too!

Hey guys, very sorry that there isn't any progress going on right now. In fact I haven't been home or logged on here or TCU for over a month. The worst part is that the whole bike is sitting in the sh ...

and yet the "lol" seems to suggest you didn't try very hard. Laughing

There is no external oil tank on an XS. All oil is contained within the engine. If you're working a chop and are seeing oil tank ...

yamaman, are you messin' with him?

Your chop is going to look great when she's done. (already does) Keep at it!

Hi, toe. Thanks for the interest.

I've been crazy busy helping my brother for the past couple of weeks, and before that I was siding my parent's house. Family first, so I haven't touched it in abou ...

I really like the way this is going, and that tank. Sick.

Only two ways I can see to keep it that low.

1. Have someone shorten the lowers, making sure the tops of the lower tubes don't rub on th ...

Amen, reverend Roy!

The stock tank looks good. If you're going to paint it you should consider keeping the striping on the sides close to the same., Those tanks start looking pretty blocky in solid colors. I would either ...

"A" looks sick and has better overall flow. Way different. Both work though. Good to see you going your own way.
