Yeah, I can't wait to get back to it!
Then this Ducati 1098s came into my life a couple weeks ago when my son bought it and asked me to get it street ready as it's been in strorage for 2 yrs.
Once that's done, I need to finish up these Harley Sportsters and then...................... fingers crossed, get back to the XJ.

WHAT? Someone owned a 1098s and they stored it for two years??? That should be punishable by law!Rdrasher wrote:Then this Ducati 1098s came into my life a couple weeks ago when my son bought it and asked me to get it street ready as it's been in strorage for 2 yrs.

Anyway, looks like a great XJ project in the back.

@Casper Looking like progress. The only thing that I am doubtful about is the height. It looks very high up... But that might change with the engine in and a slightly different camera angle...

I know right!arnehulstein wrote:WHAT? Someone owned a 1098s and they stored it for two years??? That should be punishable by law!(If I had one in the garage, it would be out at least once a week.)
It's a 2007 with only 6k miles on it and still has the original tires......

It is very high up, I am very high up. I can sit comfortably on it as is with my inseam barely touching the seat, everyone else I know will be on the tip toes.arnehulstein wrote:@Casper Looking like progress.
