One Mean XS360

[bifalconer]

This was my first build, I am 16 and have grown up watching my dad and his friends work on and build motorcycles. I thought I would give it a try myself for my first bike. Bought a 1976 XS360, bone stock for cheap. Cut off the rear tail (in a way that can be put back on). Then added a loop, got a fender from a buddy, threw on some clip-ons and Shinko 244 tires, then put together a nice flat seat that goes well with the bike. Built the bike on my own for the most part and I believe it looks awesome, especially with the original paint. Thanks for checking it out!

I was pretty impressed for the first three pictures. Stock bikes in good condition are getting rare.
It's a shame, but that might just be me.

Edit: The "first three" pictures have since been removed. They showed the bike in good stock condition but before the cafe modifications.

The bike still looks great loads better than stock in my opinion

Yeah, I think you've done a great job of maintaining the 70s UJB look without it looking bone stock. Out of curiosity, how do you find that front brake master cylinder? I bought one that looks identical on eBay and felt a little suspicious of it so I got a different one.

The master cylinder is great! No problems yet

This is a bad assed bike! Love it.
