For Sale - 1975 xs650 all original

[Ethan Johnson]

Hello everyone, I have for sale a 1975 xs650 all stock and in great shape. Only 8000 miles on the bike and has been stored in doors all it's life. Pulling it out of storage soon, and was hoping to see what I could get for it. I had plans to customize it but realized it is hard to find stock ones still around. Runs and drives great, put it away for the winter with fuel stabilizer and will be getting a tune up done this spring. Only problem is the seat has a tear in it. But for the right price I am willing to get it fixed. Located in Duluth Minnesota.

Looks nice Ethan - and thanks for not cutting it up!

Do you have the sidecovers and original exhaust system and instruments?

[Ethan Johnson]

Yes, all original! I have the pods on the carbs, but am going to have it freshly tuned and synced to the original air filters. Here is a few more pics!

I'm surprised those mufflers hold there without any hangers!!

Nice the value of the bike is appreciated and looks to be a good restomode/restore. Do you have a "For sale" price or are you after "Make an Offer"

 

[Ethan Johnson]

2200 or best offer? Let me know!

 

[MaxPete]

Well, I’m not in the market and aside from gently and respectfully pointing out that those are not the original 1975 XS650B mufflers (they look to be off an XS650 Special) I’d say that $2200 is a very fair price.

I love the XS650B - IMO, it has the most strikingly classy paint scheme ever put on a motorcycle.

If I had a bit of extra cash and lived in the US - that bike would be mine in about 20 minutes.

Is it safe now in Duluth Minnesota? I am a Fargo fan.

 

[Ethan Johnson]

Hahaha, I promise there will be no wood chippers involved if someone wants to come buy it. Just got the seat wrapped with a brand new cover! No more gorilla black duct tape.

My wife would disagree!

 

[Ethan Johnson]

Just freshened up the seat! This thing is starting to grow on me. But, still for sale.

 

[MaxPete]

Give it a chance Ethan. If you’ve got a fully operational XS650B - then you’ve got a danged nice motorcycle for just riding around.

[roadram]
