My '92 XJ 600 Resurection
Posted: Wed Oct 31, 2012 8:34 pm
Hello all. I bought a '92 XJ for cheap, I am in the process of bringing back to life. I plan on turning it into an adventure bike once I get it running. I'll be providing photos of the restoration.
I plan on tearing it down powder coating the frame, going through the engine with a fine tooth comb, possibly painting the engine, installing KLE or KLR front forks and a VFR rear end. I have already purchased a set of racks for crazy cheap on the German market, a German FZR dual headlight, a clean set of carbs, and a FZR petcock.
Paint scheme will be British Racing Green with orange accents (front fork covers, and rear spring).
Any additional suggestions or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. I hope to have it ready for the XJ rally in May.
Will be posting photos as soon as the weather clears.
