                                                                         1972 Yamaha XS650

1972 Yamaha XS650 .    Vintage time capsule.     V.I.N.  S650-122291  Manufacture Date Tag:  3/72  This bike is a survivor.  I have ridden the bike and it rides good.  It brakes well and seems to handle as it should.  
Original paint, chrome, handlebars, seat, gauges, fenders, everything except the slip on mufflers are an aftermarket muffler and they function well.  It starts and runs good, shifts, brakes and the lights work too. The carbs were recently cleaned and the bike was tuned up, valves set, timing etc.... The mufflers are aftermarket and function nicely. The tires are good and the gauges work.  Rims and spokes are original and very solid with just a few small rust spots.  The fuel tank has some exterior oxidation as is evident on the lower right side,  however, the tank is very solid and the rust is only surface rust. Chain and sprockets are good and function well.  There are 3 small rips in the seat cover.   It does have new air filters as well.  This is not a perfect restored bike as you can see.  But, it is an original time capsule.  Bid to win!!! Thank you very much for your interest in my bike and good luck to all.   Please feel free to ask any questions about the bike and I will be happy to do my best to answer them.  
PAYMENT TERMS: You must have an active Pay Pal account that is linked to your email address.  Please send me your email address as soon as the auction ends so I can send you a Pay Pal Invoice to pay for the bike.  Payment to be made upon your receipt of my Pay Pal Invoice after the sale ends.  Please have your funds ready in your Pay Pal account.  Thank you.  If this does not work for you,  then please message me prior to bidding.

SHIPPING:  You make your own shipping arrangements and pay for your own shipping, or, pick the bike up in person.  I can store it for you for up to 60 days maximum if that helps but after 60 days, I will have to charge storage fees of  $5 per day.  I just don't have room to store motorcycles.

AMA Superbike: 2012 Daytona Results

Tue, 20 Mar 2012

Josh Hayes and Blake Young picked things up where they left off by trading wins at the 2012 season-opening AMA Superbike round at Daytona International Speedway.

Yoshimura Suzuki’s Young, who finished second to Hayes in the 2011 AMA Superbike Championship, responded by taking the second race, but only by a slim 0.002-second margin.
