Recently I was given a 92 Intruder 800. After years of trying to buy it off my friend, he just gave it to me. I have plans to do some chopping and modifying. Basically all my plans center around the single carb conversion. I saw a thread about this but cannot find it now that I have registered with the sight. If I can't convert to a single carb, I have some back up options.
I have been riding since 2006 and most every bike I have owned has been modified/customized. Here's a list in order:
Honda Shadow 600 (stock)
80s Yamaha Maxim rat bike
80s Yamaha Virago 920 'kinda chopped'
94 KZ1000 complete bobber w/ rigid frame
127ci (2100cc) custom Chopper with an Ultima El Bruto motor
2016 Suzuki DR650
2012 Kawasaki Vulcan fully dressed (daily ride)
...and a few motorcycles I have lying around that I plan on getting at one day.
Things is, the top half of that list was always the fun bikes that I regret getting rid of, so now I plan on chasing those dreams with this Intruder build. Going back to small Japanese motorcycles that are a blast to ride.
