I just got a '81 XS650SH with only 1,340 miles I'm up to 2,250 now . Most of the XS650's I've seen have low miles ( 15,000-25,000) . Has anyone got a high mileage XS650 ?
that's less than 800 miles a yearMy 71 has 33,xxx miles on it. Starts on first kick and runs awesome. Hopefully going to get another 30+k on it.
Awesome 100,000K ! what brand of oil do you use and tips?my street xs650 had 100k plus miles on it when it was semi-retired.Bored out once.
Haven't own a car since 81.
what did it look like after only 7,000 miles ? Did it really need a rebuild ?Not a candidate for the most miles here! I'm almost embarrassed to say this... My '74 had only 3800 miles on the clock when I bought it from the third owner last spring. I put about 3200 on over the summer, then tore it completely down for a radical rebuild last fall.
Ol' Trigger and cowboy3669 have the most miles ! I'm up to 3,470 now .Ol' Trigger appears to have 40,061.1 miles. No rebuilds that I know about. No oil use as long as I keep the drive sprocket nut tight. Had 150 lbs compression when I tested it maybe 20,000 miles ago. Still runs the same. Has never run better than now, actually.

It forces me to check the oil level before each ride.
