    Just bought a 1980 4K0, looks great but i fear it very ill,

    Will need a lot of help from you guys and a lot of time and money from me, but that half the fun!

    So Here We Go!

    It'd be nice to see a photo. Here's my before and after for some encouragement.

    Rsk_141, welcome. I saw your post in XJ Chat. Valves are the first thing on the check. You're off to a good start.
    Robbie, I see that look in your eye. If he wants to build a café racer, that's up to him. You behave yourself.
    Dragon, VERY nice job! Let that serve as a lesson to newbies, it can be done.

    The bike looks good. In fact way too good to mess about with. I wouldn't have the heart to radically modify anything that wasn't already a terminal case and I certainly wouldn't try to persude anyone else to.

    Welcome to the group,

    Jsut what we need, more 650 secas in the group :) Yours looks like a very promissing project. I am trying to get mine road ready before my duaghter goes to college (she is 22 months old) and I am right on track.

    Enjoy.
