    Starting the tear down

    Since im only home on the weekends I dont get much time for my projects but I got a nice long weekend and am now tearing it down to repair and replace everything that needs it.



    Here is how it started.



    Got the Fuel tank, Seat, and Faring removed.

    I see now

    Why you posted the fairing for sale. Changing the whole look of the bike huh?

      I really hate the look of the fairings as well! I have one for a standard that I am going to put up for sale here at some point when I get ambitious!

          Well, you certainly set your self a goal there. As you may know, that bike was designed and built by Bob Jones. One of, if not the, premier XS11 shops and owners. I am sure you can get yours to be what you want, and that it will look just as inspiring.
          Life is what happens while your planning everything else!

          When your work speaks for itself, don't interrupt.
