November 6, 200816 yr Author Not really, spent a few £ it looks so nice an shiney cos i pride myself on keeping it clean - aint as hard as many peeps think - it when you dont keep it clean - everything starts to slide then - an can end up lookin like this
November 7, 200816 yr The flat black one definitely appeals to me, wow! I'm not a fan of a 'flashy' bike but I can definitely respect the work you've put in to it!
November 7, 200816 yr Moderator Sweet Ride OutKast! Are those front calipers of an R1?.....or are they std XJR issue? Wish we got that naked Beast over here.......I'd have 1 for sure.

December 4, 200816 yr Hi, Cracking looking bike, I have a 06 fazer600, which I love. I am looking for a touring bike as I intend to head down to France when weather gets better. How would you rate an XJR as a touring bike. I have had a look at a Honda deauville but being a 60 year old have decied I am not ready to be bored to death just yet, also thinking about the FZ1, any opinions sought. Lew
February 12, 200916 yr That thing is so shiny it was making me squint before I even opened this thread. That's one crazy XJR - you certainly must get a lot of admiring head-turns riding that through town.
April 11, 200915 yr very nice machine Outkast i owned an xjr1200 and a xjr 1300sp,quality machine, alex
April 13, 200915 yr damn that is one fine looking bike ,u can tell u have worked hard on it buddy ,it shows amazing
April 13, 200915 yr Jeasus, I looked at this yesterday, but needed to get my shades. That's one blinged up bike fella!! I am looking for a touring bike as I intend to head down to France when weather gets better. How would you rate an XJR as a touring bike. I have had a look at a Honda deauville but being a 60 year old have decied I am not ready to be bored to death just yet, also thinking about the FZ1, any opinions sought. Lew I've got an XJR (and a Z!), and I find it's hard work on the rear after 100 miles or so, worse I feel if I'm in traffic. That said, it's a might bike, and if you choose to, it can be the easiest ride ever, the gears aren't really needed as it pulls like a train in any gear, from any speed!! I've ridden the FZ1 too, and I think you might be better looking at that for touring, you et a bit more protection from the fairing. Then again, you can pick up an XJR (08, 6 months old or so) for £5k ish, so you get alot more bike for your money. If you try one - you will love it! I defy anyone not to after riding one
April 22, 200915 yr Author Just an update on me bike have added a JMC Extended Swingarm - Beowulf Warrior Cans - and a new Custom made seat (bottom pic) oh an a set of Galfer wavey discs
April 23, 200915 yr Ver, very nice !! ¿ What about replacing the rear shock absorbers with a mono-shock ? I think is the touch that is missing.
