Thanks guys!
Silvertongue, my X53 looked just like yours before I decided to restore it! You have a pretty complete bike. Most people prefer it stay original and others prefer restoring, a X53 either way is way cool!
Thanks! Its all original except for the tires, grips and the pedals which I had to hunt down.I have the headlight also but it is just not installed in this pic yet. I had it painted and completely chromed.
