I love it. Sheep are less likely to eat every thing in sight and when it gets cold again you can have them for lunch. Any prized flowers need to be well fenced or you might not get away with "it"
This is the type of projects I'd be swept up in if I had the facilities (tools, welding skills, limitless shop space) to do whatever I want. Bravo for doing something original. I like a one-of-a-kind project as much as I admire a mint-original piece.

Thanks!
Its coming out pretty good so far, I can actually start it up and it will go.
Just not very far, or with me on it.
I should be riding it around by now lol, Havent had time for it much lately.
pics of it with my nearly done fender and different tank.
Also got my exhaust bends in the mail, Yayy...
The tank looks way better, lower profile, fits closer to the front so it doesn't hang of the frame.
The old blue tank is off of a XS850, it didnt fit right.
Hey keep the pics & info coming!!! I can't wait for the end result. At least this is not boring & done b4, what an original! When its done you'll get alot of attention, don't know anyone who wouldn't walk across a parking lot to check it out. I gotta admit, when I seen the motor it blew my mind, but its 'your bike' dude - Dan
