    Hi all, Found this great website this week. (Bought an '81 bobber style XJ650 at the weekend.)
    I'll try and upload a pic here.
    I'm also looking for a sissy bar for it but i'll request that in the right place.
    Cheers
    Nick

    Hello and welcome to the forum,

    Although thats not my style of bike , the pic looks pretty good on your xj there.

    AS far as this forum goes, I don't think theres any thing about an XJ that you can't find out or learn from someone right here in the forum.

    At least thats been my experience so far. A great group of people here.

    Welocome to the forum from across the pond.
    What is that front end off?
    It looks from the pic that someone spent some time on that one.
    Enjoy the ride.

    Welcome, Nick, where you from in the U.K.?
    Is your bike street legal?
    We're all here for you. Wiz.

    Hi Chaps,
    Firstly, yes it is streel legal. (tho' the exhaust is rather noisy:)
    All i know is that it had the 'extended forks' when i bought it and the exhaust is a 4-into-1, came off a 1200 Bandit.
    I'm just getting a sissy bar made up and will be putting some rear pegs on and a home-made seat for when 'she-who-must-be-obeyed' wants to jump on board.
    Cheers folks.
