Hi, got the craving for xs after watching "On any sunday" for the 2nd time, my first was 30years ago. Just love the flat tracks and esp mert's story. Those guys had balls. Anyways I took a tour of a local bike museum in Nabiac NSW, and bugga me, they had a flat tracker harley, same colour scheme as merts. Story goes it was left here during a USA v's Oz title moons ago.

There where many classic bikes including some fine examples of xs's and i just had to get myself one.

So found myself a good one that had been mostly restored and than left sitting for around 8-10years.

I have enjoyed the little work I have done so far, and had good transactions from mikexs and ebay.

cheers
