I do have a blog for my XR500 that I'm slowly working to make street legal. I initially called it a "restoration", but it's more of a "refresh with some light modernization" than anything else haha. I intend on keeping it as apocalypse-friendly as I can, since it's kickstart-only, runs off a CDI system, and technically doesn't need a battery (except for lighting)... The biggest hangup I have with that bike right now is the damn 23" front wheel that's cracked. Not a single wheel repair shop I've called wants to touch it, a not-cracked 23" hoop is ~$150, and it's too much work to convert it to 21" (that requires a disc brake conversion - I'm not tracking this thing, it's just a commuter).
