Well, I've tried about 4x today to post this through Tapatalk app and got nothing but errors so, since finally home I'll try posting from the desktop.
I'm looking for opinions/insight on a couple dif deals I have come across. I have found 2 x XS500's - 1975/76 w/ownership, non running, seized, looks complete in pics for $200.
Other deal I have come across (really leaning towards), 1 x XS650, 1976, seized, few extra parts, ownership, $360.
Good friend has XS650 and I know there's a lot of potential in 650's. Also, know that there is a lot of aftermarket parts, etc available.
I'm used to working on 70's and early 80's Honda's so, Yamaha is new stomping grounds . Is the XS500's worth fixing, chopping, anything? How are they mechanically, aftermarket parts, etc??
Any info is appreciated...TIA
