Hello there,

I've been reading this forum for a while now and finally decided to start my own project thread.
I bought a reasonably priced XJ 600.
Facts about the bike:
- a runner smiley.gif requires only valve adjustment and a little carb cleaning.
- one of the exhaust manifold gaskets is dead and it causes a clicking noise (I hope that's the case)
- front caliper is likely to be seized (only one)
- rear shock is dead seized, the linkage is even worse

- front fork legs are mismatched (I think)
- and that's it smiley.gif, I rode it back home.

My plan is to transform it into a daily commuter cafe racer. I'll upload some pics as soon as I figure out how to do it.

I have some calipers and new seals I have left over from my FZ build (went with 2 pots from the FRZ400rr) if your interested!

In the forum posts, yes. Search in the help section. You normally need to have the picture hosted and then you can link the picture.
