XS 650 Screwturner
I said a fond farewell to a old friend today.
I have sold my 1978 XS 650 Special which I have loving owned for almost 10 years.
My decision to sell stemed from 3 variables.
It certainly frees up a fair chunk of change.
The fact I had done everything necessary to that machine leaves a void for me being the guy who loves working on machinery.Riding is just not enough for me.
And finally,for the past year, I have been fighting lower back issues (3 ruptured discs) and riding a motorcycle is not a good idea for me now.
I have enjoyed my many hours of time spent on this site,the things I have learned,the odd bit of opinion or advice given and the friends I have made here amongs all of you.
I could not have restored my bike into the beautiful machine it turned out to be without all your help and encouragement.
Retiredgentleman,TeeCat,5twins,Grizld1,Travis,Barb and of course xsjohn (RIP) and everyone else on here,many many thanks.
