Guys, I am pretty torn on the purchase of a 1981 XS650. The bike is in excellent running condition. It just passed VA State Inspection (which really says something for the condition of the bike). My intent is to make it a cafe. Cosmetically it's a 7 out of a 10 with a little rust in a few spots. The only issue I have, is that I was in the market to pick one up a little cheaper than he is asking. He's asking 1200 for it and I offered 700. He then dropped to 1000. If I pay 1000, I will be assed for awhile and will not be able to do any mods/add ons, but, will have a running XS650 in very good shape.
Then on the other hand, there is another one a couple hours from here that needs a carbuerator rebuild, but, it's selling for 400. Not sure what to do. Any and all advice, opinions, etc. are welcome.
