Yamaha XS description
Selling my motorcycle to help fund new music gear purchase. Hate to see it go but unfortunately don't have the funds for both! Started life as a 1983 XS650 Heritage. Bike did not have speedo/odometer when purchased, installed one roughly 150~ miles ago. Bike has CLEAR TITLE in hand and is being sold as-is. List of parts/work done:
- Hardtail done by Northeast Chop Shop in Windham, ME
- Harley Sportster tank
- Pamco electronic ignition
- High output ignition coil w/ new plug wires, caps, and plugs
- Slimline master cylinder w/ new brake lever (black)
- Drag bars (black)
- New clutch perch w/ lever (black)
- Biltwell 'kung fu' grips
- Keyless ignition
- Pandemonium Custom Choppers 'Ya Mama' exhaust w/ DEI black heat wrap
- Model A tail light w/ LED brake light
- UNI pod filters
- 3" Bar-end mirror
- Mini 2.25" speedometer
- Tires have very good tread life left
- Oil changed 100 miles ago
Has a few small oil leaks that are easy/cheap fixes, I just have not gotten to do them due to lack of time and space to do it. One is from the clutch pushrod inside the left side motor cover, another (small) one is from the neutral switch on top of the motor, and the other is from the tachometer drive on the front right of the engine case. If you install a tach/cable that will clear up. Neutral switch is a simple O-ring I believe, and the tach drive is just a seal + bushing. Bike will give a few drips after parking it so I wanted to note it to be clear. Paint on take has a couple small scuffs, no deep gouges, no dents.
Bike rides well and carbs have been jetted to accommodate the intake & exhaust modifications. 47.5 pilot jets and 145 mains. Idle mix screws 3.25 turns out. Bike is kick start only. Electric starter is there, but not hooked up. I have not tried it to confirm whether it works or not - you just need a starter relay and momentary start button to try it out. Starts up first or second kick when warm, takes a handful when it's cold out in the morning. Carbs are set up for a thumb/cable choke (available on 83-84 XS Heritage models I believe) but does not have a cable on it, so choke is manually adjusted if need be.
Bike overall runs and rides well. Hardtail with the springer seat really is not harsh at all when riding. Would be a perfect bike for someone to buy and tear down this winter for paint and powdercoat to make it awesome. I was also planning on putting a new headlight on it as the current one has a small switch and LED installed on the top that used to be for the high/low beam operation before an OEM switch was installed on the left handlebar that works High/low beam, horn, and turn signals.
Let me know if you need any other specific photos or information and I will do my best to get them for you.

Yamaha Tops Second Day of Sepang Test as Honda Twiddles Thumbs

Motorcycle Live and a few of my favourite things for 2013
Tue, 27 Nov 2012There is lots of shiny new metal on show at Motorcyclelive this year but for me it’s the new Triumph Daytona 675 that steals the show. We’ve been starved of brand new models in the Supersports segment for years but for me the latest Trumpet has made the wait worthwhile. And if its performance matches its looks then I reckon the 2013 bike of the year is a foregone conclusion. The sleek curvy nose contrasts perfectly with the more pointy angular rear end and new side mounted silencer. It is lighter, more powerful and revs harder with much work on on mass centralisation to further improve handling. Few of us have a whole lot of spare cash these days but £8899 for the standard model seems a fair price for such an awesome bike. That said I’d have to consider selling the granny and granddad to find the extra £1700 for the 675R. Available early next year, and surely the perfect all round track day tool, this beauty comes with upgraded suspension, brakes, ABS, a quickshifter and some nice carbon detailing. The white 675R on display at the show looked even better in the flesh than previous images I’d seen so be careful or you might find yourself handing over a deposit. With no money left from the Triumph stand you’ll need your six special numbers to come up for my second favourite show item the AGV Pista GP Project 46. Although road legal this extremely light, full carbon helmet is designed especially for racing with a huge field of vision, extensive ventilation and superb ergonomics. It also comes with earplugs which suggests there may be some compromise in the noise department but it is still an incredible piece of engineering. At £799, this special Pista is also an incredible price but there will only be one hundred available and Raceways Yamaha reckon they are going fast.
