denim, are you set on the flat fender? that fender bender guy can do any fender ya want, ribbed, smooth etc. oh how bout some 3.5 gallon flat side tanks?  more capacity, and not overly large to overpower the look of the bike.

Yeah I've seen the fender guy.I'm thinkin' about going that route on the XS.I just like the Indian Larry,Johnny Chop type builds.I screwed up buying two projects plus going home,and getting the Honda.The '86 also needs tires. So I'm trying to get a list of parts together for each bike.yeah right...
I need to get on Kustomjim's website see what he has.I would like to support our own.
Lancer I'll be getting ahold of you for this build.

denim,
Are you keeping the seat? I've got a crazy notion for my bike stewin' in the recesses of my brain, and the Savage seat and pillion might just do it. If you're going to part with the seat, I know I'd be interested. Thanks.

Ah. Well, it was a thought. I'm not far enough along in the project process to consider recovering at this point. Still "ify" on whether I'll do it at all. Been arguing with the evil monkey that lives in my brain. Grin
Thanks Denim.

Thinkin' about going with this tank.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&_trkparms=tab%3DWatc...
I think it would look good with a scallop paint job.
It'll sit high on the frame with those mounts.Friscoed!That's kinda funny being from a town called Frisco.

I think the bobber build is on hold for a while.Tore down the engine,and found alot of bad.Needs cam,cam chain,tensioner,rocker arms,possibly a whole head,and alot of helicoils.I found wood lag bolts holding the head cover on.1 head stud stripped out of the case.
I think I'm going to jump on the XS build.

Boken fin on head.
