Custom Chopper XS 650:
This 77
XS650 D was built by G&L Choppers in Colorado Springs,
Co with help from the owner Ron B. from Castle Rock,
Co. We originally built the frame and the battery
box last year for Ron. The rest of his
first go around was built in his garage taking three
weeks. He then rode her to Sturgis. This year
Ron came back to G&L Choppers to upgrade
his forwards controls with our set. At
least thats where it started. With the help of Ron we
totally transformed his original build into what you see
before you. Here's a short list of what was
done. Hope everyone likes her. Thanks
again for having such a good site.
