XS750



I can't believe it, she runs! Spent the day dismantling/cleaning/reassembling carbs, arguing with the battery (ended up boosting it with the truck. She really spins over that way!), sorting out leaky petcocks, replacing fuel lines, etc, etc, etc. Runs rough but it has no exhaust or air cleaner. Need to get pod filters as the air box is bigger (and uglier) than my head. Anyway, it sure is nice to have a project actually run. Just need battery, air filters, and exhaust of some type or another. Oh, and by the way, it's for sale.
