Bad A$$ Street Tracker
- 8
Hi this is my 1975 Yamaha XS650 Street Tracker.it’s got a few trick mods twin 6 pot front calipers, kawasaki fuel cap built into original tank,
XS 400 rear wheel disc conversion,LCD clocks built into original clock body,hydraulic clutch,34 VM Mikuni round slides with K&N’s,Boyer Bransden ignition,short Mega’s exhausts,finished off with a custom paint job.
This is the greatest bike iv’e ever owned plus the fact it looks real bad ass to.
Simple. Clean. Effective. Everything done to this bike enhances either the look or performance. Not a lot of heavy modification, but what is done is done well.
Of course I’m into chops so I’d like to see more, but that’s only my taste talking.
You’ve combined a bit of vintage feel with a little contemporary look and came out with a winner. Sweet paint.
Great scoot. Thanks for sharing.
………speechless. GORGEOUS RIDE
Clean with high tech compoments. Lovin it!
fully diggin’ it..nice work on the paint also..
Very cool machine the paint looks good and i like the rear sets too
wow! thats is a sweet looking bike would love to see some more pics!!
nice bike! is all your electrical stuff in that area under the seat??? if so what kind of battery are you using? (if any)
All the electrical stuff is in a box under the seat formed out of sheet metal which also adds strength to the frame.everything fits in the box snuggly the battery is a gel type so it can be laid on it’s side without any leakage.the rear sets don’t really give a comfortable ride due to there position and it’s a bit awkward shifting gear due to the gear shift lever being close to the muffler but after a while you get used to it.
I have also fitted LCD clocks into the stock clock bodies for an up to date look.
if anybody has any questions you can email me at brickie120022000@yahoo.co.uk
