SL70 retro-Mod build

[theraymondguy]

Canucks pay way too much for this kind of stuff. We're used to it. I got $1400 for a Cherry all original XL70 (1300 miles) last summer, no where near what an SL would get, but still good money.

I hear you there. We do tend to pay more for things we want.

Blah, blah, blah, whimper, whine... The pond stays frozen a lot longer, you get free health care and all the moose crap you want. Ain't so bad North-a-the-border, eh?

ofcourse now that the Canadian dollar seems to be worth more than the American dollar things don't seem too bad.

Muddied up the thread. Here's a pic of my old XL70 for a comparison to Geezer's.

That setup will be nice with the rear single shock. Great build thread. Can't wait to see the finished bike.
