XS650 StreetCHOPPER Update

Finally got back to work on the StreetChopper today. It's all coming down to the details and finishes now. See if I can't have this thing done in time to run it at the Bike Bash in a couple weeks.

Chopped the fender mounts from the forks, de-seamed the casting line from the lower triple, panted the fork lowers and the wheel.







Some work that was done before moving the shop. The ugly as fuck trailer fender is binned. I honestly couldn't stand it. Buddy of mine gave me the idea of making something a bit more suited to the style of the bike. We spent an evening hammering and welding up some sort of a drag seat. It looks killer and fits the bike and your butt perfect.





More of a detail piece, but it is fast becoming a signature StreetKORE part. Glass brake fluid reservoir fitted to the rear master cylinder.
