    Wee bit light hearted banter. He gave us this fine Land,The excellent Water Of Life ( Whisky !! ) and a good sense of humour. And all because of our neighbours........
  2. Lot of work done to this bike. There is a similar bike on Sale at Ebay at the moment. I have also got to say I really DONT like white bikes. But thats a personal issue. Well done though. I did love my own (red) RF900 and would have another in a second !!

    Welcome ! Good luck on your project. Look forward to seeing the pictures/reading the text about it all. Maybe someday I will try some customising myself.
  5. Welcome !! As an Owner of a '89 XJ600 Paperweight I was interested in all you went through. Mine will hopefully be getting worked on this winter when I get my new "Man Cave" !! ( Ordered & awaiting delivery 6-8 weeks) Also having previously owned a Pre Divi XJ600 I can remember it having a "Buzz" around the 4-6000rpm so I think that it may be part of the character of these particular bikes.

    The stripes look fine to me. But it's YOUR project so YOU decide. Looks good & some great work. Hope when I actually get started on mine I can do a similar quality of work.

    Try and get a test ride on each bike. Something that you like the look of may not fit ! Maybe the seat isnt any good or footpegs are akward. Seat height too high or something completely different. As neversaydie wrote they are all good bikes & you wont go wrong with any of them.

    Hey blackhat250 !! I had a MZ250ETZ !! Best wee bike I ever had. It even waterproofed my Right Boot with oil as I rode along... Started every time. Regardless of weather or temperature. Only sold it when I got my first XJ600 Pre Diversion.

    Hmmmm... This is me talking straight off the bat. No guarantee anything I write is fact or useful. Because its such a small engine you may need to slip the clutch a bit more than you think to get a smoother pull away. Or it may be as Cynic says and its just a trait of that type of bike. But try slipping the clutch a wee bit more first. It will really annoy the neighbours.......
