The shocks are KONI type - currently build by IKON

what are the shocks u put on it?

[trevortrevortsr2]

I had one of these 1979 with ace bars - good bits were the torque at all engine speeds and trouble free shaft drive - the iffy bits were the front breaks in the rain - flexy frame and forks when pushed hard - quite heavy and this odd jack up effect when moving off in haste - I blew the engine chassing my mate on a ZZR 900 - the centre conrod big end went into melt down - I went over to a FJ11200 which if anything felt lighter and had better breaks and handling.

no offence, to each his own....but man that exhaust is GGGGGAAAAAYYYYY

[ATLOGband]

what was the jetting like? i see you put on individual air filter

[optcyn]

is that the original gas tank?

[stachelbeereis]

@optcyn

Yes, it is the original gas tank of a '76/77 XS 750. Later Modells have a larger tank with a higher line to the seat

Schönes Ding. Und was sacht der TÜV dazu? ^^

Toller Umbau, gibt es Informationen zum nachlesen? Verwendete Teile, Modifikationen, Umbau-Story?

[stachelbeereis]

@computername

Es gibt Info im GSX-Inazuma Forum - da muß man sich aber anmelden, um es sehen zu können.

Der TÜV hat in einem persönlichen Gespräch für die Modifikationen seine Zustimmung gegeben. Nur verlangen die den alten, langen Rattenschwanz als Kennzeichenhalter......der wäre für mich dann aber nur temporär ;-).

TÜV hat die XS aber noch nicht, da ich sie erst mal mit 07-Nr. fahre und abwarte, ob doch noch ein Wechselkennzeichen kommt.....

The battery is located in the tail section (little door on top). It is a smaller scooter battery.

The rectifier and more electronics is below the seat in a self made aluminum shell between the frame tubes.

Where's the battery and recifier?

[timbermax]

Say you sold this. how much would you ask? I'm looking at one in about the same condition. Except a little bit more custom.

[stachelbeereis]

@timbermax

I did not think about selling the bike - just made it for me. Where are you from ? My bike is located in Germany ! May be some time I will go for a new project and sell the XS......

[timbermax]

@stachelbeereis  Sorry. I wasn't asking you. :) I was just wondering if you did sell it, how much would you want in US currency?

[stachelbeereis]

@timbermax

O.K. - I would ask for about $ 2000,-
