Yamaha XS description
|
Clean 1979 Yamaha XS650 with 3200 miles. If you're here I probably don't have to convince you on much about these XS650s but here I go.
It's an awesome bike, easy to work on, tons of parts (both aftermarket and OEM), easy to ride, quick but not crazy, and an awesome sound (parallel twins are my personal favorite). I got this bike from the original 1979 buyer and I have the papers to prove; I have the original invoice from Action Sport Cycles in Metuchen and the original owner's packet w/ the manual, warranty card and information booklet. I even have the original plate last registered in 1983 (I'm really debating on keeping it for myself). I have 3 books to assist you in working on the bike. Pretty much all the info you will ever need to know about the bike is in those books. I have the receipts to most if not all of the parts I got for the bike. So why am I selling? I got an itch to buy a car and I need to make up the extra money somewhere... Here's most of the parts I have: On the bike: -electronic ignition (the thing with the zipties you see) -ultimate high output ignition coil -spark plugs -spark plug wires -spark plug boots -new ramair foam air filters -exhaust pipes -increased jet size for carbs -new petcock setup -black dirt/street tracker bars -blade fuse box -new battery last year, always trickle charged when not used. Not on the bike: -OEM type oil filter strainer (sump) -some o-rings, forgot what for -original exhaust The bad: No mirrors, they kept getting loose and falling off while I was riding so I said, fuck it. Brakes could use a service, still stops with no problems but they're showing their age. Had a huge sissy bar that I took off and discarded. Lost the brackets for the original exhaust. Can probably be found on MikesXS. That's all I can think of right now, I'm asking $3500 for the bike, and I'm not rushing to sell it, so I'm pretty firm with the price. That being said, feel free to make me an offer, worst you can get is a no. I'm gonna hate to see it go since finding another XS650 like this when I get back into bikes is gonna be tough. Also, I forgot to put the sidecovers on in the first few pictures, my bad! |
