    wow man...... speechless......that is a SERIOUS undertaking. you must be a glutton for punishment! haha it looks like it got thrown off a cliff then sat in the ocean for a few weeks. Looking forward to seeing the ending product. You did an amazing job on that XJ900 by the way!

    I wanted a challenge... This one's a little bigger than I anticipated but what the hey :lol:

    I wish I could take all the credit for the 900 but it was already well on it's way when I got my hands on it... That's part of the reason why I wanted a ground up rebuild... Want to know if I'm up to it.

    I've done a few cleanups before (like the 550 in my gallery) & finished off the 900, but never a full restoration.

    I've done very little with this for some time now... Until last night when I bought an 82 XS1100 Midnight Special... lol

    Just have to finish the XV750 off roader first :)
