XS 650 Custom Seat Installation Tutorial started

I got some time last night and installed one of my seats on my new shop bike.  Took a bunch of photos and am currently cutting them up and making a how to tutorial.

Counter Balance Cycles Shop Bike

Ive been meaning to do a few things for the past year or two.  I want to make a set of instructions for the products that I make and sell, and I also wanted to use my parts to make a 'shop bike'.  This little beast is going to be the base for all of the above.

Custom xs 650 Seat

Finished this seat up last night and got it ready for its trip to France.  Custom perforated top with gold stitching and lengthwise tuck and roll.  Gonna look killer on the xs its off to.

xs 650 Bratstyle

Had some time last weekend to get my xs ready for the season.  I wanted to change a few things up so i got rid of that little sissy bar, and made a simple bracket to mount the tail light to the fender.  Then i had to make a simple license plate bracket and made it mount to the bracket that the old sissy bar was mounted to.  I took off the rusty exhaust and used my tubing sander to sand down the welds smooth.  I revealed a few pinholes that ill have to weld up with the tig soon, but they arent through holes.

I also made a new stainless intake manifold to replace the prototype manifold i made for this bike a couple years ago.  Runs much better with this current style manifold.

Cant wait for the snow to clear and have a decent enough day to get out on this thing...
