I finally finished my 650 again. I had to tear the carbs apart, they were leaking from sitting on the shelf for 2 years. Put hem back together, fit them to the bike and it fired after about 2 seconds. After some carb synching it purrs really nice just like before.
There were a lot of people who helped me from here giving me parts for free or just pay shipping, Rainman, Mark Wing, Helimike. Thanks a bunch guys. Now I just want to ride it. How about a Southern California trip in May.

Glad to see her all done. Looks great like before. 
Now just steer clear of the Idiots in the cages and enjoy!

Very nice ! and ready for the new season
Looking at the contrast of the red white and black I think it would be easy for someone knowledgeable to photo shop those three tones into any color combo you want.
Not that I would change a thing , she's real purdy
