found this site called bikeexif.com it's photos of custom and restored vintage bikes (the ones we like) professionally photographed and professionally built,there are some nice xs's, rd's and a beautiful yamaha sr500 street tracker,lots of photos to scroll through but well worth the time for ideas and inspiration.Also for the street tracker guys who havnt heard of mule,check out his trackers there mostly harley's but there are a few xs's very pricey bikes about $20,000 but again good place for ideas and inspiration

Maybe it's just laziness after all the miles but Yamaha didn't do that bad ........just had to fix a few other things to suit me...... just getting old I guess.......couldn't figure out what to F up style wise or take any time away from riding to make it better..75.5K qnd running perfect... Laughing ..........

You young guys that have the talent and time to sculpt these thing are artists.......me I'm a rider.........and an engine man...too often I see the pretty but how far will it go.. Laughing ...now just to piss everyone off again........women decorate..men fix things.......... Laughing

And most of the crap builds I see make me laugh and worry....can't beat me for the style..........I left it alone.....and just fixed what needed fixing....40+ years experience taught me that........... Laughing
