Yamaha XS description

1981 Yamaha Xs850sg , 850 triple with full plastics (saddlebags and fairing). the windshield was chopped down to give it a more style. the whole bike has been blacked out minus a few chrome pieces. It has a kick and electric start that both work. This bike's powerband really shows in high fourth into fifth gears. tires are end of life and will need replaced for next season. Brand New battery and bulbs all around. Carbs rebuilt and jetted at the beginning of summer. Im looking to trade for another classic or sell outright. I may matte-black the plastics/tank in the next week or so. Contact me anytime!! $1,000.00 8123919419
