i was hoping after the car show you'd come over to Tonys house, litteraly jump over the fence by the burn out wall and that's his house so you could check out the xs400 and 650.

I think I have an extra set of TC Bros forward controls for the xs650. I sold my hardtail xs and the guy didn't want the forward controls

Here's my bro's newest acquisition. 73' Triumph Tiger 750.
Aftermarket frame, aftermarket everything. About the only thing stock is the motor.

He bought it as is. We have a few plans for it. New seat/ cutting up the gas tank a bit. And if you didn't know, my bro does air brush work.. (pretty damned good too). So he's already got a crazy paint scheme in mind for this too.

how are you gonna pick up women, (which is what the bike is designed for I am guessing)...and not have the common decency to add a back seat?



looks good though, nice to see a cool looking blue in sea of ugly bikes, with their black with cheap chrome and copycat tribal and ghostflames and skull nonsense. 

dont ruin it with lame graphics.

i have a pillion pad for the back fender, and the holes are drilled out, but i didn't have big enough rivits, so I'll put that on this winter.
