For your consideration, is a 1977 yamaha xs 650,This auction is for what is pictured only frame engine carbs tank ONLY!! i purchased this with the intention of making it into a cool chop, but no cash or time left , so my loss is your gain, The engine has good compression andkicks over well, there is no electric start, the kicker has a brass kicker pedal,there is chrome valve covers and acorn nuts, i have never had the engine running or apart, so i cannot say with certainty, of the condition, i was told from the previous owner it was gone through, but i have no way of documenting this. The transmission shifts well and is solid, it has a foot clutch and hand shift, a very unique set up, the goose neck pipes are one off,and it comes with a coffin gas tank, the frame had the hardtail treatment and the front neck is degreed for at least a six foot front end. it currently is set up for a disc rear brake, but does not have a wheel or components.
