Looks great.
I prefer forward controls. Certainly can't manage sports bikes now...
Did you do the build?

Yep, quite a few Chops on here as well.


Yours looks cool 8-) 8-) 8-)


I bought an XS650 Special brand new - I think I had the 3rd one in the country, before they became ubiquitous...that sort of makes them less "Special".....


Here is my Chop, Ade can't quite work out how it functions...

It was built around 2001 and painted by our very own Keith Baker of "Classic Cycleworks". 1340 Evo.

Would prefer a Pan or a Shovel but you can't have it all......
