Will they fit an xs....I think you lucked out and scored a set of TX750 wheels there.

Yes, they will fit the 650 but you'll need/want to swap the rear sprocket to a 650 size. The one on the 750 wheel is much too big. You'll also need to use your disc as the old style on the 750 wheel is offset differently.
Just so I understand. I can take the rear sprocket and front disc off my current wheels and install them on these ones... Good to go? One more question. The rear spoked rim has a black wire (I circled in the pic). I could find this wire on my current wheel. What is this? Am I missing something here?
Hi Chachi,
older XS650 rear brakes also had an electrical gadget there. It turned on a red dash light when the rear brake shoes got thin.
Yamaha dumped that system in the mid 1970s. Remove the gadget, install the wheel and ride.
