***Brute Bobb Build***

lol ahahahaha okay okay....i guess i deserved that one.

on that note. absolutely!!!

the new airbox should be here in a few days which i'll also be starting on the wiring for the hidden starter switch

 

Why would you need an airbox?

 

someplace to keep his stash

 

You can see in the picture that the back half is missing. it was running okay when i bought it (other than a bad battery) and now it needs a bit of ether to get her going. The old airbox was in rough shape and chewed up with cracks and a hole so i wanted a new airbox also to keep the water out.

on a side note, the exhause was taken off at the midpipe so i know that there is a little less backpressure but i haven't installed the butterfly baffles yet. in a few days (when i get the new airbox) i will be taking off the carbs and bringing them inside to clean them. WISH ME LUCK!!!

 

guess he didn't ask me if I had an airbox...................

lol aw man. guess i didnt realize it. I still didn't think $25 was bad

i would have rather given the club member the money though

 

dude, great job!!!!

 

dead?

 

Love this build! Just wondering, with the fender like that, is it capable of carrying a passenger still?

 

great build man, just went through it all and im looking forward to seeing it when its all done!

 

Definitely one of the best build threads ive read! Awesome bike. Looking forward to seeing more i just want to keep seeing all the progress.
Just started a xj650 build 2 weeks ago it's hard trying to keep up with school and find time to work on it

 

Nice build man! Looking forward in seeing more pics.
