    Hi Ross...Thanks as you can see there are several things that are not stock abt this bike...most notably the lack of extraneous parts...like horns,or side reflectors...the side cover emblems are there but painted black and the tank is off a Standard XS11 with no emblems on it.The original and only owner before me...was going for an old school streetfighter look..the painted wheel rims were media blasted and the bare metal is what you see...alot better than the orig Blk paint...

      Nice bike! I was just looking at your pipes and it looks as though your carbs are a bit lean.

          I imagine you are talking abt the Streetfighter.....yeah it is a bit "cold blooded" but it does warm up and run smooth...an indicator of a lean adjustment.I have yet to ride this bike more than 2 miles and I will be addressing this in the Spring..now back to your regularly scheduled thread.....
