I bought this today, locally , off Craigslist. I have always liked the looks. I got it at a decent price and it will be fun I think.Runs good and needs some tlc but I'll get it sorted out ok I think.Needs a tach and a chain guard. Some leaking oil from one of the upper covers to figure out.

77' XS650 Yamaha

Still won't run, and one is totally seized no good so if you find you need a part or something feel free to send me a message and I'll try to snag it for you One is a 79 and one is an 81 I think, both xs-650 specials. Looks like nice bikes, havent gotten to actually RIDE one yet!
