Is your XS1 front brake lever missing the coiled return spring?
Telltale is the tiny spring hook just above the balance/transfer rod.

Good eye 2Many. Four of those springs are available on eBay:

Also, a new brake cable attachment point has been added to the left lever arm. Easy to correct, but will leave a speed hole in the arm.
