Hi All:
I am getting some help from MaxPete on starting my thread to tell you about my snazzy new (to me) XS650 Special <I think>. FYI, I have been a member of the forum for a while - but I finally have bought an XS650 which I can restore and enjoy along with all of my riding buddies!
First off, I need a little help identifying the bike as it is a bit of a "bitsa" mongrel (as you can clearly see) - here is the VIN: 447-860-XXX - it is registered as a 1979 and I am pretty sure that it is a Special - but I'd like to know for certain so that I know which wheel to change.
...and here is a photo (as I know that you guys really like photos):
