What kinda price on the twisted springer? and I'd need it shipped to 72176

Thanks gggGary, that is exactly why I joined this forum and ask the question I did. and I'm not gonna waste $50 or a sixer on that bike, $50 can go in my other beater project and the sixer, well its gone lol. like I was saying, I happened upon this one and didn't know a lot about xs650s so I...

And jd750ace, I haven't been really shopping for anything just saw it while I was browsing CL and wondered about it. You came off assholish is all. I know I'm new here but been a mechanic all my life just not on Yamaha's.

Not at all what I said angus67, I just don't like people talking down to me like jd750ace came off as doing. I just never messed with older bikes until my CB750. Kinda like them so figured I'd branch out into Yamaha xs650s seeing the after market for them. I didn't trust the guy selling is why...

Even though my last bike(CB 750) was close to a basket case, I'm really looking for a bike that my 15yo brother can learn to work on and ride. Thanks gggGary, guess I missed that one floating around.

The green one is gone. If I knew exactly what I was looking at I wouldn't need you or a forum would I jd750ace? I didn't say it was gonna be my first bike just my first basket case.

Part of the reason I asked. Its advertised as a 650 but I don't know them other than rep.

That's my question, the guy doesn't know if it even spins and obviously it's been neglected. I'm looking for a project but not a pile of junk that'll never be worth a crap.

I am looking at a basket case(my first build) and am wondering, is it worth the time and money I'm gonna put into it? Its a $200 rust bucket that I plan to chop and stretch a little. I have some leftover parts that came with a CB750 I bought and they are Yamaha parts!! Thanks!
