Your wish is my command! The Bike is now in the hands of a new owner though! I'll miss this one.

Bike is sold!!!

So I have decided to sell my xs650. This thing is an animal. Details and pictures in my kijiji ad. Bike is located in Whitby, Ontario. I want to build a bobber out of a sportster, so this one has to go. Please keep the flaming to a minimum! ;)...

It runs pretty smooth actually. Really likes to be on the gas though, that's for sure. I haven't taken apart the carbs on it since I got the bike. The motor work was all done beforehand. I'll likely be doing that soon though, so I can let you know then.

I'm stoked to have her all buttoned up. She's gonna be a blast, that's for sure! 1979 Yamaha xs650 -MikesXS 750 cylinders, MikesXS Cam, Pamco electronic ignition, Performance rods, Welded crank, 36mm Mikunis, Ducati oil cooler, All new wiring, and some.

Love it! You could make a fortune selling those kickstarters. I would be one of your first customers!

I bought a Bell Custom 500 from GP Bikes in Whitby. They have lots of em there.

Will do Jay. Your CB is lookin' might slick!

Right on man, I love those SR500's. Might have to go on a tear together this summer!

From another newbie to the forum, Welcome! I just checked out your portfolio, really dig your work, I might have to make an appearance at your shop sometime.

Yeah me too. I'm sure I'll have to dick around with it a little bit, hopefully not too much. She's gonna pull hard though, that's for sure!

Here ya go Tim, I zoomed in on the bracket for the steering damper for you. Hope that helps a bit.

Right on Tim, Thanks. The bike is up at a buddys shop right now. I can take a picture of the welded bracket for the steering damper next time I'm up at the shop for you. I might not run it though. I need to see what the turning radius is like with it on there before I make that decision...
