    XS250 Undecided Project.

    Hi, This is my second post on this forum but basically I'm a newbie who impulse bought an XS250(parts from one) and I'm going to try and rebuild it with limited time/money. My initial aim was to cafe racer it but I also love the look of some of the trackers people have built so depending on...
