Created by Bill Becker, a Philadelphia-based retired architect with a gift for restoring motorcycles, the bike was commissioned by a client who wanted a vintage-looking street tracker, and Bill over-delivered. The only pieces that were kept from the original XS are the fuel tank and engine, the rest of the bike’s been reworked with a bunch of desirable upgrades, including a Trackmaster custom-made frame swingarm, Yamaha R6 forks, Öhlins shocks, Excel rims wearing modern Avon Distanzia tires, and bespoke brakes from Sweeden’s ISR.

The bike’s engine has also been overhauled with high-performing bits (carbs, exhaust, mufflers), and the electrical upgraded with modern LEDs, plus a new speedo & tachometer combo. Tastefully finished in a superb vintage green with matching leather seat.
