The XS850 is big and heavy, but it’s not necessarily ugly—it’s actually a very nice base for a classic cafe racer

The forks and brake system are from a 1993 Kawazaki ZXR, but the switchgear and the rear shock are from a 2009 R6.

There’s more radical frame (and swingarm) surgery further back, where the twin shocks of the stock XS850 have been ditched for a new monoshock setup.

Finaly, there’s a stainless steel exhaust system with multiple immaculate welds.

It’s topped off with a set of two custom stainless mufflers
