Hello all,

Here is mine. I just picked it up and is going to have some work done.


I will include updated photos as work gets done.

Nice start to the special!!! I noticed the speedo cable is off. I would pull the speedo, turn it upside down, and add a little oil into the cable slot. The cables start to break when the speedo gets old and start to stick, DAMHIK....

Thanks for the tip

Thank you for the compliment. The shocks are Progressive brand 412 series I believe. I got them used on eBay for $76 I think. They're for a Harley so I had to grind down the XS shock studs and then use a sleeve that fit just right inside the shocks.

I did everything in my garage and I've got about $3000 invested.

Here's a link to the build....My Build

Gender Gap

Somewhere in this thread is a pic of him before... now... he is a she... with attitude...


take a walk on the wild side

Whether they be a she or a he, Specials will always be...............simply special and are the one constant in an ever changing world and I love that Macho Maroon.

Cripes! I hope the two heaps I am working on right now will look as good as some of the "pre project" bike photos on here right now.
Very nice... VERY nice. Well done.

Have a look at Triumph Rocket III screens. Mate at work has one, looks great and looks like it should bolt up pretty easily.

Hello XS'ives, I wanted to share a photo of my 82 XJ1100 with everyone and this seems like the place to do it, so here she is my pride and joy.



Thanks for looking,
Larry

Mine I used to love the bobber look, but I'm in the proces of stockpiling parts to bring her back to stock (seat, airbox and rear shocks) and I'm looking for either clubman bars or dare I say clip-ons toying with the idea of a cafe.
