    Well there's no sense in blowing anyone's mind with the amazing feats of me. So in short I build motor controllers for DC motor systems, specifically lower voltage higher amperage (12v-90v, 300A to 800A).

    I love toys but the ones I build for work cost a bit more than good 'ol petrol so I've been slowly making my 1981 XJ650 Maxim road worthy. Mostly thanks to this site.

    Must Do List:
    Rebuild Ignition - Took apart and cleaned
    Upgrade brake lines - Purchased
    Replace brakes Front/Rear - Purchased Front/
    Remove rust from tank - Success
    Rebuild Carburetors - Setting Float Levels
    Rebuild petcock - Petcock hasn't started leaking yet
    Replace old fuse box with new blades - In process
    Replace air filter - Done
    Convert to new style oil filter - Must Do/Old bolt stripped ooout
    Replace exhaust - Have a set of harley mufflers
    New Battery - AGM
    New Tires Front/Rear -
    Seat needs reupholstering and probably padding -
    New brake lights and turn signals -
    New Battery covers - Didn't come with any.
    Check Valve Clearances - Checked/replaced/good.


    To Do - whenever
    Forward controls - Rethinking this for now
    New Bars -
    Paint the tank -
    New rear shocks - Maybe a little lower
    Progressive fork springs -
    New Mirrors - Stock black ones currently
    Different Grips -
    Some Luggage type devices -
    Power Ports -
