no brake cable, hydraulic brakes.

i have tham, but the brake lever is bent, and i can't find the back part of the strap for the MC.

sorry, everyone, i suck. but I'm back, and now with pictures!

if you still need, i have one

Alright, well, its been a few days, i know- but, for the most part, im done. waiting on my brake light switch, jets, and i need to make a new throttle cable. here she is, in all her glory (will be having the paint done over the winter)-

it's coming along, a little bit. got my controls mounted, threw together a handlebar at work. have a couple other bikes going now, new baby- well, 9mos. new job, a lot going on. mostly i just need to mount the tank, coils, make front and rear brake stays, and wire.

He sent me the bushings with the kit, and i made my own axle and spacers. My stock axle was exactly 1" too short, so the complete length, plus the threads again. I'm not sure who makes/sells axles, but I'm fortunate to have access to a lathe and stock at work.

FWIW, the Voodoo Vintage XS400 kit comes out 1" wider... i had to make a new axle and spacers... its normal.

no instructions, but it's pretty intuative. if you dont have a jig, you should really look into how others have done rigids without one- also, it will be ~1" wider at the axle tabs, so plan on having an axle made.

I'm sorry, edited to reflect- i am using the wheels and front suspension.

I have everything but engine, frame, wheels, forks, and charging bits for a '79- will post pictures when i get out to the garage. Everything is make offer, and I'm more than reasonable- i need your dollars way more than i need parts lying around. Until i post pics, ask, and ill let you know...

i think the turn signals are boned, but ill go out and look. i'll pm you after i look.

I can set you up with everything you need, provided 79 parts will fit.

Friend let me raid his attic, came up with a 21" spoke wheel from an old YZ.. slowly but surely... at this rate, I'll be done in another 10 years- give or take..

well, I've made some progress, got my 16'' rear wheel, thanks to NA3S, and smacked out the lower rear mounts. I have another thread about the uppers, and the distance from the backbone to the mount points is exactly the length of an XS400 con-rod, so perhaps i can do something with that, as I...

Yeah, i get it. Just gonna have to sort something that's not terrible. Anyone who's dealt with this before, suggestions still welcome. Posted via Mobile

While setting up this rigid with a single backbone, I have taken issue with the rear upper mount- as in, I'm not sure how I'm going to make it work, and look decent. The front mount stays in place, and I have sorted the rear lowers. I know there is some debate on the 650s about the need for a...

Deal was made

Thanks! My plan is to finish weld tonight, and hopefully get the rear engine mount sorted.
