    Hey everybody,
    I've been fixing up my bike and I wanted to let people see what I've been doing. I put on some drag bars and turned them down and a viper cafe fairing. It came with this really nice kirker exhaust and my next project is to work on the pipes and redo the seat.
    See you on the road.

    Thanks for the props, it's been fun so far. I swear I'm going way faster. I was really moving tonight and then I thought to myself, am I in 6th? I wasn't! so I clicked that sucker up and got up to 80 and that's where my speedo maxs out. It was too fast for that bike and I slowed down a little after that.
    See you on the road.

    I'm not a big fan of the cafe racers, but that is a sharp bike. the color with the fairing looks pretty slick. the exhast kind of sticks out, but still quite sharp.

    I got my '82 XJ650 Seca up to about 110. I had a little downhill slope to help out, though.

    Your bike looks good. The front blinkers are kinda bulky, imo.

    Thanks for checking it out. Yhea, nobody likes the blinkers but have you seen the originals? They're like pop-tarts. I like them big and bright especially with all the crazy people down here. I've been rear ended once and I was wearing a super bright green reflective vest! If I wasn't wearing that gear I don't even want to know what would have happened.
    See you on the road.
