Own a piece of history with this XS750 SPECIAL! I purchased it from the original owner. Has period correct bat wing fairing. No leaks. It does have a nickel sized hole in the left muffler from the center stand hitting it. Tires are good with excellent tread and no dry rot. I spent a lot of time sorting out the issues with the bike and sidecar. It's set up for a 240 pound rider and 135 pound passenger. The alignment is perfect! Everything on the bike and sidecar works as it should. It gets lots of attention wherever I take it. Paint isn't perfect but it shines up nice. Please feel free to contact me with any questions. I'll be happy to text or email you more pictures. Having an issue loading pics.

Fri, 16 May 2014

Alastair Seeley took a double in the Ballymoney Borough council Supersport and Pirtek Superstock events at the start of racing at the Vauxhall International North West 200 this evening, what many “real” road racers refer to as the precursor to the Isle Of Man TT. In the Supersport race, the ‘Wee Wizard’ survived being caught up in a first lap crash at York hairpin that left him languishing in 16th to come through and win the opening race of the night on his Mar-Train Yamaha R6. Lee Johnston was the rider who went down in the first lap crash, causing Seeley to take evasive action to avoid going down himself.
