    Yep, I'd like one too, like the NOSE1 style would probably fit around 4-1 headers, looks kinda like one of those Bob Jones chin scoops. Can't get myself to spend $140 though.

      Slowly bring it back to stock or close to it. Painted the tank a dark green with a little metal flake, just need to get some two part clear coat to finish it up.


      The petcock tips that I repaired worked. I did put some JB Weld on them to seal them up but it seems to be working now.

      Next I will be polishing up the handle bars, grab bar and front forks. Then I will be removing the black paint from the covers on the engine and polishing them up.

                If the Shoei that came with the XJ looked that good I would still be using it. The windshield is all busted up and the bessle for the head light is missing all togeather.
