WOW! the best looking XL250 ive ever seen! how much did you spend on that project?

[monkokong]

@Dancarman21 thank you! we invested more work than money... had most of the parts in the garage...

I like it, it reminds me of the first bike I ever built, a hybrid SL100k1/Cb100k0 that had both rear rims laced up for fatter rubber, stripped down and repainted, I'd never heard the word "cafe" or "bobber" back then, it was 1991 and I was sixteen. I wish to hell I had that bike now! Yours really takes me back. Sounds like you need to get that exhaust and carb into harmony. A bike like that should start on the very first kick over. But I guess that's the nature of a first start! Is it fixed now?

My XL350 always started in one or two kicks, but I kept it stock. You don't have enough back pressure for that thumper. That's why it doesn't want to start or idle.
