French Bratstyle xs

 French Bratstyle xs

Here is a great Bratstyle xs 650.  The description has been roughly translated from French » English.

“Write about your XS650.: This is a 1978  650 xs I retrieve from a barn 5 years without a tour.  After 1 year I rebuild the original engine by reading above anything online. It has a 2in1 mac performance exhaust. The forks have been lowered.

    Very, very well done. Good balance and proportions. I will stop now, as I only have the highest praise and don’t want to gush like a teenager.

    @ Hesh- Steph definitely nailed it!

    I wanted to get some more info on it but it’s kind of hard communicating with someone when you can’t speak their language. One of the things I like most on this bike is the rear shock covers. Nicely done.

    I agree ted, those rear shocks set it off, where or what are they from?

    Stephane,

    Où avez-vous le choc arrière à partir pour un look parfait. Je suis désolé pour l’im mauvais français essayer de traduire.

    j’aurai quelques questions a te poser.
    Concernant les modifs sur le cadre, qu’as tu fait exactement ?
    et tu as baissé la fourche d’origine ?

    Cool sled Stephane. I’m diggin’ the tank, shocks, handle bars and bar end mirror. White grips are a nice contrast. The no’see’um chain is pretty rad too! Heh, heh, heh…
