Some adjustments

I'm not happy with the seat of my Guzzi. I think it is too long.

I also think that the dutch license plates are too big, but that's another story.

I altered it a bit and placed the license plate somewhat higher and plan to remove both taillights and replace them for one taillight in the middle.

Maybe I alter it some more with another taillight instead of this one (a LED light doesn't fit this oldtimer).

More parts.

I bought some parts on the internet ("Oh no! Not again!?!").
I also started on a tank of a XS-750.

This is the tank after I stripped the old paint and painted it with primer.

Some Raydyot lamps. Don't know if I can use them for the XS-500, but I like them anyway.

The previous owner of the tank has done a bad paintjob on it, so I started stripping it.

Eels



I've seen him a year ago at Tivoli, Utrecht. Great concert.

XS 500 with wheels

I fitted the wheels, just to get an idea of how it looks.

Carb cleaning

These carbs need cleaning

Just imagine the wheels

Just use your imagination. Do you see the wheels? I do.....



Except for the engine, the exhaust, the handles, the headlight, the taillight, numberplate...
I see the wheels, only the wheels ;-)

More stuff

I got even more stuff from the internet...

To use these handles on disc-brakes, I have to move the master cylinder. But where? And how do I connect it to the handles?
