Hi,
For Sale: 1983 XS650 Café racer. This bike was a ground up restoration 1 year ago, with no expense spared. The motor has been bored to 763cc, Wiesco pistons, ported and polished, everything else was done, including crank and bearings, stock cam, electronic ignition and new 36mm Mikuni carbs, one tooth larger counter shaft sprocket & heavy duty chain. Rebuilt forks and seals, tapered steering head bearings, needle bearings in swing arm to replace old nylon ones, & new shocks. Exhaust is ceramic coated from Omar’s, the reset foot controls are nicest I’ve ever seen, also from Omar’s. New drilled disc brake from Mike’s XS. Paint on frame, tank, fender and seat is 1 yr old and spectacular quality.
This bike won best in class "Street Special" at the Paris Vintage Rally. It won the best "Best Special" at the Mosport Vintage Festival Concours D’delagance, and it won the "Entrants Choice" award at the Great Pine Ridge Fall Classic show. This bike is ridden, but never raced, handles great, fast and bullet proof. $4,000.00
