    Can anyone tell me what the orange and white XS is in the forum banner? Or even better is there a thread on it?

            LOL. Yeah yours is nice but that banner one is a freakin monster. I really just wanted to know more about that front end. Had no idea it was so radically changed.

              Wow. Just wow. That bike is absolutely stunning. I'd like to see one of those TV star hardtail builders make something that interesting for once!
              1990 Ninja ZX-10. It's the Silver Surfer. HI-YA!!

              2006 Yamaha XT-225. Yep, I take it on the interstate. It's Blue Butt.

              1982 Toyota 4x4. 22R Cammed, 38/38, 2" pipe, 20R head with OS valves, performance grind and other fun stuff. It's Blue RASPberry.

              1969 Ford F-250 Camper Special resto project. 390 RV cam, Demon carb, Sanderson headers, 2 and a quarter pipes with Magnaflow mufflers. It's Blue Jay.

                Bless your heart Nate...love ya like a brother though!

                You need to get a round tuit and post a detailed pictorial of YOUR rebuild. It turned out really nice but we only see details in occasional pics.


                Back on subject...Math I really like the front fairing, dual headlight thing you put on...from reading I guess that is available from a newer model Yamaha. Guess I just have not seen one.

                  I did have a build thread, there really isn't anything left though to keep that thread going. It is just the occasional thing now and then.

                    Hi John, the fairing isn't yamaha. It is a german Hesa streetfighter fairing.
