Greetings Everyone,

I just purchased my first motorcycle a 1976 Xs650 i have named Blue Yahma; which is my current profile pic. I'm new to motorcycles in general, i received my license last month after taking a three day riding course. I hope to eventually turn it into a cafe racer, but I want to get a couple hundred miles under my belt first. The previous owner gave me a clymer manual, but i plan to get a haynes manual as well because i don't really like the clymer one. Anyway, if theres any advice as far as basic motorcycle repairs or if anybody knows of any classes in the NJ-PA area i would appreciate it.

Cheers,
Kevo

For the XS use the search function and the garage threads here.
For general info Dans is a good start.

Welcome. The Clymer should tell you the same information as the Haynes. Some factory manuals free on line.
