my xj pics

except for the front exhaust pipes the bike looks very clean ... nice one!

 

I like the flames. Very nice look. How did you layout your flames? did you use a kit or go freehand?

 

very nice! a little different from some of the other bikes on these boards. i like it a lot, very clean

 

Well done

 

love the gauges; where'd you get them?

 

well i just got the bike so have no idea about any of the parts or paint

 

thats a good find if you just got it the gauges and the flames are very nice.

 

thanks everyone i shaved the seat foam some got to get some risers made more than the 1" thats on there the bars hit,she needs brakes,a rear tire,and i the i might take the carbs and beat them with a sledge hammer but other than that its just been little stuff like turn relay cause they didn't flash got the info here...wiring is/was a mess taking that one day at a time.....waiting for the snow to hit so i have a reason to chuck the rear fender and seat for something that doesn't remind me of robo cops head

 

I particularly like the Handlebars and Instruments!
Where'd they come from and at what cost?

 

have no idea all installed by PO but i need to figure out how to hook up the tach???

 

hehe dam, also wondering where the gauges came from

Nice looking bike.

Don't beat the carbs with a sledge, , follow Rick's carb guides and get the tuned and happy.

Wiring is always fun..... keep at it.

 

got the carbs figured out runs great now #4 needle retainer popped off as for the pods duct taped them a third from the end perfect golden plugs and wiring is all knocked out painting the case tonight

We're letting the "Pictures included in Posts" get a little out-of-hand.
In the future, how about Posting your nicest photo and placing the rest of them in Your Photo Gallery.

I know your house is probably hooked-up to the fastest speed your Internet Provider can supply.

But, not everyone is as fortunate.
Some people still have ... slow ... connections.
They live here too.
Thanks.

 

I'm just a noob, but if people conform to the size restrictions at 72 dpi, there shouldn't be a problem....I like to see the pics and I HATE trying to search through the photo galleries....NOT user friendly!

My 2 cents,

Dean

 

sorry rick and to all the dial uppers on the board i'm still a rookie on here

 

I'm not going to disagree with Rick, because I think we should be as accommodating as possible, but I'll admit I like to see the pictures without having to go through the galleries. The problem is that the galleries aren't user friendly! Perhaps you can link to the pictures in your gallery instead, so that people don't have to search? I haven't tried it.

 

just click on gallery below the post

 

well dropped the bike off at my buddy's shop to day he is making me some 3" risers for the xj and taking the rear shocks with him to his brothers HD shop to remove the springs and chop'em for me...so no more bar and tank love making :lol: then cause i can't find a stock head pipe he is going to mod my supertrap to 4 to 2 with some harley mufflers this winter....i kicked around in his shop finding parts for my build found a fatbob fender and a nice almost new seat that i can refit and cut the seat pan to mate with my tank, going to cut and reweld the frame where the seat is over the battery drop it below the side panel for a lower seat height and give it more of the laid back look let it flow with the tank lines...also is going to take a look at making me some forward foot controls 8)

 

sounds like your bike will be looking sweet
