I feel like this video is a fitting end to the “making of trash can” thread.

It’s gassed up and ready to go! 

There will be a few finishing touches to share as winter allows.

Comments/Criticisms are welcomed.

You oughta hear this thing.  Triples make a rather exotic note.



that is the truth, one of the more unusual sounds I've heard.  for all the bad press the XS trip has it isn't all the bad of a bike...Larry
