1981 650 Special II. Runs pretty good. Purchased in 2018 with 8900 miles. Had not run since 1991 after relatively minor crash that dented tank, twisted bars, kinked rim and scraped pipes. Got it running and added new Bridgestone Spitfire Tires with less then 250 miles. New front rim, intake manifolds, air filters, battery, bars, headlight, master cylinder, chain, and petcock. Rebuilt forks, brakes, carbs. Replaced several other items with ebay goods. Probably needs a good tear down to be a reliable long-ride bike. But I don't have the time or motivation for that effort anymore. Clear title and currently registered in Virginia.
