Almost There Everyone... Closer And Closer, take a look...

Postby Guinness2479 on Wed Oct 28, 2009 5:36 pm

Been awhile since I've posted just been browsing the posts and learning. Well, I got a call from my frame fabricator last week and then again today and I went and snapped some pics... Still not completely finished, a few more gussets, and supports but over all just to give some Ideas on what I wanted my XS to look like in my head...

Hey thanks guys, I wanted a real low ride but still have ground clearance. With tires aired up and forks stock ride height, I am looking at about a 4 1/2 to 5 inch ground clearance. Seat pan is approx. 18 1/2 inches above the ground. I got some more pics of the support gussets etc and have spent a few days just moching up the engine and gas tank. Still staring at it trying to decide on controls, fender, and tail lights. Ive got Gordon working on some exhaust pipes for me so as soon as they arrive Im gonna fire her up and see if all my hard work has payed off. Mind you this bike came in 4 boxes when I bought it. This is my first build. I appreciate all the support and the help and Im sure I will need more lol.
