Title: Off track........a bit !
Post by: YUMASTEPSIDE on July 11, 2008, 08:33:51 pm

Off track posts seem to be the go at the moment but this is dirt bike related ........sorta'

I've always loved the American dirttrack XS650's,especially the street driven versions,so when I was offered an XS650 I jumped at it! Now to start collecting parts...........don't tell the cook!

Anyone else like these " street trackers " ???

Gorby my one (Half owned and we have never had a dispute over it in 25years ;) ) is a Champion framed 1972 model XS750 kit Ex Street Brothers import. Now painted in the lovely Kenny Roberts Colours. One downer is Some scum appears to have taken our molds of the tank .seat and side plates we had made ,but trust me I will find the swill and they will pay!!! Anyone come across some flat tracker Fiberglass molds that have a very faint racing number "650" on the side plates contact me please Tim754. No current photos will get some.
