Candy blue XS Bobber I built

bobber Candy blue XS Bobber I built
Describe Your XS650:   Year: 1976

Here is a 76 I chopped up a couple years ago. I added a Kansas Kustom 4″ stretched hardtail to it. Polished all the alluminum out. I added a boyer ignition to it, rebuilt the carbs,mac pipes. This was ther best bike I ever owned. She was a one kicker.

    So I found your bike here first, and stumbled upon it via Youtube. I was going to comment there but I do not have an account and I was to lazy to set one up. Such a nice bike. I am building a 79 right now. I have a couple ?’s for you.
    1. What treatment did you use on the frame? powder coat?
    2. What size Maxxis tires did you use?
    3 And that tank that you got form jireh cycles for $99, is it a 3.1 gal ‘king’ tank?

    Thanks for your help.
