Description

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, oregrettably, fter 5 years of ownership, his 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, o Irecommendreading through both build threads, ut this was a combination of many hours of work on my part, lus 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, he carbs were rebuilt by Spyder Cycleworks, tc. You will not find a nicer XS triple anywhere. The bike is currently kickstart only, ut 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:
