Hotwls 96 XJ Cafe
Posted: Sat Jul 23, 2016 6:18 am
Hi all, I'm Russ from Sydney, Australia. I've owned my 96 XJ since 2008 & have been on here for quite a while using the site for help but never been very active so it's time I got it happening. I've been slowly modding my bike from stock to Cafe over the years. It has been my daily work commuter so I've never been able to have it off the road very long ..... I'm now in the middle of a full rebuild but first, here's a catch up
The beginning

Naked mod with Acewell gauge & Clipons

Side view with R6 under tail

R6 Undertail & Ixil Exhaust

New Gold Fren wavy front disc, Side panel removal & first tail chop. Dressed in Top hat & Moustache printed hessian sack & ready for Distinguished Gentlemans Ride a few years ago ... No it didn't catch fire

Nice country ride after 1st tail chop

Found some FZR bits on eBay ... All 3 discs were stuffed

FZR wheels Powder coated & I got some Dime City stainless Quieter-core reverse cone exhausts

Exhaust detail work by a great local custom shop bike shop called Rene9ade Customs

Another exhaust pic
