Hey there. My neighbor has a '75 xs650 that he is giving away. The front end was wrecked about 15 years ago and has been sitting in his garage since then (unrepaired and now rusty). I don't want it cuz I'm moving and trying to minimize my shit and its pretty rusty (wheels, spokes, exaust, probably everything) PM me about this, I know he's still got it. There is no title.

SOLD. . . . 6-30-10
Thinking about selling my Honda CB 550 chopper, any of you local boys interested?
Hard tail Amen Savior frame, twisted springer front end, 2 spare motors, Mac drag pipes, and Clean and Clear title in my name. Bike was dissasembled for restore to add to the collection but I have not had the time. The 650's and 110's are taking all of my spare time and I really dont have the ambition to get to this one. I put thousands of miles on this last summer before I tore it down, rode pretty good for an old school chop. Motor is in the rolling chassis, a few hours of good hard work and you could be on the road.
Looking to get 1000.00 for it or its not worth parting with the Amen Frame. The hardtails are extremely hard to come by.
I may also be interested in a trade for a titled XS 650, shape is pretty irrelevant as long as it runs and has a legit title. I need another donor for the next project.

Sorry I missed your post man. We did do the Floodrun. 35 south to Alma, then back up. Hit the scenic overlook down there.
Wish I had the $$ for your chopper. Got too many projects as is right now, and my wife would probably be pissed if I added a 5th bike to the stable right now LOL

FREE PARTS
Alright guys, picked up another parts bike last night. It was a freebie; motor has a rod hanging out the side of the block but if there are any specific parts that you guys are looking for let me know. Parts that I am not using are FREE for the taking. Bike will be getting stripped tonight and whatever I am not using will be in a scrap tank before the end of the weekend. If you want it; come and get it.

Funny that you ask, I havent even looked. Im thinking it is an 80, drum rear brake, spoked wheels, instinct is telling me either an XS or heritage. I will check and confirm this when I get back to the shack.
I want the following:
Heads, wheel set, fork, carbs, frame.
The rest is there for the taking. I may part with the carbs if you are seriously in need of a set but they are in really rough shape. I DO NOT know the condition of any of the parts as of yet, I have barely even looked at the thing. I know that a rod knocked a hole in the case/cyl though, that much is obvious.

The lowering kit is a chromed do-hicky that moves the bottom of the shock back about 2 1/2 inches. It bolts to where the bottom of the shock would go on the swingarm and then the shock bolts to it. These were popular in the 70's. Today we can buy shorter shocks, but it looks pretty cool.

Ottis, where are you located.
I have some carbs and air boxes from a 72 for sale too, really clean, ran well last year with them. Also two sets of carb holders from 72 and 77, also the carbs from a 77, they're not clean but the diaphrams are good.
