XS400 Addict
Hi!
I'm Jonathan from Sweden. Just got my first street bike, a xs 400 -82.
I've been riding motocross since I was a kid, had alot of different bikes but haven't ridden in a few years. Grew tired of pedalling everywhere and decided to get my hands on something fun.
My plan is to make a low budget bobber. First priority is to ride. Having a cool looking bike is important, but it should never come before the pleasure of turning that handle.
I have had some experience when it comes to building bikes, bicycles that is. Posting some pics of the builds, someone might find it interesting.
I've also started a blog, mostly for myself to keep track of what i've done.

But i'll post pics and stuff here as well.
I read some of the threads here on the forum, really nice to see people doing work on the same kind of bike. Keeps one motivated!
Posting some pics of the bike as it is now, stripped down. The last one of the bike is after some polishing, easy but time consuming.
See you around.
