  1. Hi I've started a new project a couple of months back, and im close to finishing but running into a few problems so i thought i'd start sharing my progress to get help, and maybe even help others from this experience. I'll start with a couple of pics to show what it was and where im at. It was a chopped down, sought of chopper hybrid, thing. really ruff. in massive need of some tlc. I am making it into a Cafe Racer. I have so much to learn. This is when i got it: Here it is with the new fiberglass seat ready for fitting: Just after it was painted last week(frame, tank, steering clamps, seat): Getting motor in and front end on: Now placed tank and seat onto see what it looks like: I got wheels on today, Im having problems with the wheel axel setup, as im not sure whats meant to be in there in the way of spacers... I think it was missing a few parts when i got it. the last guy had no idea. anyway, i will post again with updates and questions. Laters.
  2. Hey All, Just wanted to say hi! I picked up my first Yamaha (1978 XS750) this weekend, and I think its going to be a real (fun!) project. I'd been debating the merits of the XS750s vs the (Honda) CB750s for a month prior to buying this bike without coming to any overwhelming conclusions, but the price on this particular bike ($300) steered me toward the XS. There are (at least) evident electric (harness) and aesthetic issues, but I'm excited and can't wait to get to work turning her into a budget cafe. This will be my first, and I'm hoping to do a serviceable job with another $1,700 (for a total of 2G). Quick observation: in the 24 hours since I actually came home with the bike, I've been amazed with how many more readily available (online) cafe parts there are for the CB750 than the XS750. I can't wait to search around this forum to see how other Yamaha owners approached their cafe projects. If you have advice, I'll love it! Anyway, just wanted to say hi and let you all know that I am excited to own this bike and to have found this forum! Pics to come soon... Texas (Dallas)
