  • Bought SF

    Just picked up this SF, 13K, new tires, oil cooler, spaghetti exhaust. I have the forks in nice shape, side stand and center stand off PARTZILLA but needs brake and carb work and a seat,the hardest part. Paint looks like it can be polished up ? Appears it's never been laid down.




    This is the oddest exhaust I've ever seen, is this stock for the Alphabet headers ?

      Nice!.........what forks did you re-purpose?
      81H Venturer1100 "The Bentley" (on steroids) 97 Yamaha YZ250(age reducer) 92 Honda ST1100 "Twisty"(touring rocket) Age is relative to the number of seconds counted 'airing' out an 85ft. table-top.

          sweet

          looking bike. I agree those forks have to go. I still have one of those seats. I don't recognize those pipes but they at least clear the oil cooler attachment. Very nice. That is the reason I am pursuing putting my stock pipes back on mine so I can put my lock hart oil cooer back on.

          Well done and good luck with it.

                Hey Done,

                Just slide the tubes up in the triple tree a bit! I know of one other Xsive that put 6" overs on his as well, and he also had an oil cooler, but he had regular Mac type pipes, different paint scheme as well.

                  If I put a short bar in the handlebar clamps to mount my GPS. and maybe something else and raised the forks in the trees a few inches, put a fork brace on I could put clip on bars and paint it like an American flag. No that would never work on a rice burner, would it
