Mockup


Trying to test fit everything. I just shortened the original fork, it was really easy only took a half hour, found an early XR 250 rear shock which is about 2" shorter than stock, Harley sportster headlight which is supported from the top so I don't need any clamps/brackets on the fork tubes for a cleaner look, Muffler is from a kawasaki cruiser, 18" Rims from the salvage yard powder coated black with new Buchanan's stainless spokes and IRC tires. I purchased the Tank the XR500 tank from Omar's but I fabricated the seat to fit my frame.

  1. Hi Thierry,

    I was wondering where i could find directions on shortening the fork. I'm working on an xl600 tracker project and your bike is a huge inspiration.

    Thanks. Dan
