Did you see the '76 on Sac. craigslist - in Orangevale? Not what you called for, but enough parts to put one together. https://sacramento.craigslist.org/mcy/d/orangevale-1976-yamaha-xs650-project/6888164668.html

Thanks Bill, yes, i saw that, wasnt in the mood for that heavy of a project, supposedly older and wiser now so I prefer just to cut a check and get something ready to roll. Thanks

This beauty was already shipped to Japan, to sell.

Very nice and a very fair price. Considering the Japanese penalize (high taxes) bikes over 400cc's, it's surprising to see it sent back...when you'd have gladly bought it.

I dont the price when it was here, but when playing make believe, sure, i would have purchased.
Going back to Japan is this business's business model, that is how he operates, at least on some bikes.

Okay - here's one on CycleTrader - in Virginia (will cost $600-700 to ship) and he's asking $2500 OBO for it, so all in, you'll be around $3K. https://www.cycletrader.com/listing/1976-Yamaha-XS650-5007716191

If you can live with a 1975 model, this: https://www.cycletrader.com/listing/1975-Yamaha-XS650-5007692115 is only $2000.
