So I have just acquired an XS 650 from a friend who was cleaning out his shop and storage following the sale of his property. If I have the history correct it is a US bike with title while I reside in Canada. The bike had some attention paid to it by the previous owner but I can't say that it was good attention. It had a rough pain job done to the tank, frame and side panels. Bike is definitely not running but appears to be complete. it is a 72-73 model according to the serial number search. The ID plate on the frame has been faded badly so I am working off the stamped serial number. The motor is free but will need to be torn down. I have zero clue right now as to when this bike might have last run. The price was right and some spare parts are likely coming my way yet as the move approaches. I will be combing the forum for ideas and resources. Its been years since I have owned a bike and I have had the itch for some time.
