Very nice & desirable seat. It is however from an earlier model such as 75 -RT

 

[650Skull]

Standard seat 74-79; The profile of the XS650 seat changed in the later years, but 74-76 was the same, (as this seat looks to be), and then 77D/78E seat was thicker padded and the 79F had a definite kick up for the passenger part of the seat. All have the same pan.

The Seat will fit all Standard models, 74 - 79.

Will fit the Specials, (78SE, 79SF, 79 SII, 80G SII), with some slight mods. http://www.xs650.com/threads/standard-vs-special-vs-special-ii-seats.22157/

Awesome info. Thanks for the post.
When I purchased the bike, this is the seat that was on it. Did the job until I could find something a little more low profile.
