I can't believe I'm selling this bike. I spent 2 years and countless hours rebuilding this bike. You can check out my build threads on DTT here: (XS750D to XS885 build - DTT). We're buying a new house and have too many toys, so regrettably, after 5 years of ownership, this one has to go. The wife says that 2 motorcycles and 3 mountain bikes is too many. There is far too much done to this bike to list, so I recommend reading through both build threads, but this was a combination of many hours of work on my part, plus the work of many of the best motorcycle specialists in the business the forks were rebuilt by Racetech. The wiring was done by Matt at howtomotorcyclerepair.com, The carbs were rebuilt by Spyder Cycleworks, etc. You will not find a nicer XS triple anywhere. The bike is currently kickstart only, but I have a fully rebuilt starter motor ready if you would prefer to convert to an electric start. It starts easily with a few kicks. Here is a quick list of what was done: Detabbed and looped the frame Powdercoated the frame and calipers gunmetal gray Powdercoated everything else black (wheels gloss, everything else semi-gloss). Including fork lowers, and chopped front fender.Every bearing has been replaced Anything rebuildable has been rebuilt Every wear item has been replaced (EBC pads, clutch, etc) Black SS lines Drag barsAntigravity batteryLED brake lightsNew Nissin Radial 19mm front master cylinder with ASV LeverASV Clutch LeverNew 5.5 inch headlight Tomaselli throttle and grips New Forks by Frank tubes Racetech modified and lowered forksNew NOS Left fork lowerCustom fabbed a seat pan from 16 gauge steel Got the seat custom upholstered The tank is fully restored, sealed, and custom painted in original colors (except the dark blue is now black), no vinyl.
