    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

  • In order to help others find info on a particular bike, be sure to put the year, make or model of bike that you are asking a question about, in the Topic Title. This will allow people to pass by posts they have no interest in.

80 XS850 Triple

Yes, you am missing something, the pictures of the finished project, heck pictures ain't just for Zukis.
 
They are painted Rich. Just gotta find a hole to get the decals on and cleared. Weather here in OK broke and its been alligators up to the arm pits. Cant fix the bikes fast enough.....for them anyway. LOL

I also want to see the finished project, Chuck. I almost forgot you were even doing it. I started off reading the opening post and I have to say, stop worrying about the criticism from one member who takes pleasure in pushing your buttons. The rest of us look forward to your projects. I really enjoy your threads, and some of your techniques (like lighting a gas tank on fire) put a smile on my face. Keep up the good work, keep us entertained, and do what you do.
 
Put decals on the side covers today and adjusted the switch positions a bit. Then I invited a buddy that has the 79 XS1100 for a ride. We went to a place called POPS out on reoute 66 just east of Edmond OK. Its a popular bike stop and when we pulled in ( and i will swear to it in any court ) of the 50 or so folks mingling in the lot nearly every one watched as we found a parking spot. Such a satisfying moment to know we shocked the house.

Anyway, I will take some pics and post them even though the covers arent cleared over the decals yet. Put 80 miles on her today and she ran exceptionally. Love that growling pipe tone it has.
 
Declas made by a local company called Image 360. Need to be cleared still.

Naw naw naw chuck, we didn't want pictures of the side overs, we meant the whole bike.... Oh, it's not all together yet, sorry.
 
Chuck’s like an old school, high end burlesque dancer. Shimmies and shakes all over the place, gets you all worked up, and in the end just takes a long glove off. :)
