New Welder!

I picked up a new welder this weekend and got it all wired into the garage earlier this week.  Keep on the look out for more welded parts coming!  Ive got more handlebars in the works as well as some custom exhausts!

For now a set of independent manifolds...

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...

Quality bender time this past weekend....

Finally got some time to work on a set of new bars for the xs 650 brat...  Ive been meaning to spend some time working with my bender.  Ive done simple bends, but never made a set of bars with multiple compound bends... Pretty happy with how they turned out... need to work on my math and pi skills a little bit.. haha..

 Finally got the disc brakes installed and bled on the datsun 620... Stops 10x better now, but a few small issues to sort out...

Finally finished mounting the sissy bar, seat, tank and making a new brake stay for this cool xs 650 hardtail.  Got room for another bike now... haha...

New seat in the shop!

Just got this one finished to fit the 74+ XS 650.  The only problem is that there is a nick in the vinyl on the back of the seat.  Due to this blemish this seat will be sold discount.

Check out the shop for it!
