Yamaha XS description

This is a custom 1978 Yamaha XS650.  The bike started out as a stock bike in great shape and was taken apart, chopped and a TC Brothers hard tail was installed.  The frame, motor, and sheet metal is all done in metallic blue powder coat.  The rims were blasted and powder coated black then new bearings were installed and Firestone Deluxe tires.  The electrical system was updated with a new regulator rectifier which was mounted in a fake oil tank with a sealed battery and all other electrical parts.  All wiring is made of modern cloth coated wire which has silicon heat shielding and was hidden in copper pipe.  The exhaust was custom made with solid brass tips which match the grips and pegs.  All starter parts were removed from the motor in an effort to reduce weight and the bike is kick start only.  The forks and triple trees were shaved and polished as were the brake calipers.  The rear master cylinder is made of glass, brass and billet aluminum and the gas cap is also made of brass.  The seat is custom hand tooled leather.  Lots of custom parts on this bike.  I made the bike in 2012 so it has four year of wear on it, see pictures.  The battery was just replaced in the bike.  Sold as is and buyer is responsible for pickup.  $200 deposit due via PayPal within 48 hours of winning bid and remaining balance due via certified check or money order within 7 days of purchase.
