XS650 Addict
I've got what your doctor might call a healthy craigslist addiction. I'm always checking out the local list to see what XS650's are coming out of the woodwork. I've missed some deals but I've also had some scores, this weekend was the latter.
It's a 73, which I guess makes it a TX? That's always been confusing to me. Chrome frame/swing arm/rear hub, excellent condition Tracy Fiberglass body complete with cactus paint job and it has a decompression tappet cover which I had never seen before.
The wiring is completely trashed but shouldn't be too hard to get redone, I've done it a couple times before on other bikes. I also want to coat the fiberglass tank to proof it against ethanol gas, if anyone has any personal experience with that I'd love to hear it, I've only coated steel tanks to date. The chrome is in alright shape, I'll just clean it up as best I can and leave it. Pretty pumped on this bike, can't wait to get it riding.
