there was a huge thread over at xs650-garage about a piss-poor engine built by thomas and the lack of customer service after the motor was purchased.... just wanted to throw that out there.

And $1695???? I buy whole bikes for less than that, several whole bikes usually. More power to anyone willing and able to pay prices like that. To me, one of the major reasons I own this bike is because I can fix it myself and for a reasonable amount of money. Thanks but no thanks, lol.

 

[olddude13]

Just fishen for details. Thats is pricey maybe thats with out core

hi guys gee!!!!!! how expensive,,, why not buy a brand new 750 heiden kit for about 600 bucks and for that you get top quality ,,, and everything to do the job,,, then for a tad extra buy a new cam to help tickle it a bit more then also add on a nice pair of direct pull which are allready kitted to suit.. and we,re still under1700 bucks easily... and you have got satisfaction knowing you did it ...regards oldbiker,,,, all from mikesxs

eek. I bought my whole bike with a rebuilt engine for less. And new tires, brakes, controls......Just sayin'

Its does say complete rebuild If you replace every where item and check from the bottom end up think of the cost in price plus time for labor. Im not saying that its cheap or expensive but if you can afford it and dont want to go into the motor yourself not alot of shops around taking old jap motors.

 

[littlebill31]

True, but I think that's what separates a lot of us. We want to do the work.
Don't get me wrong. I, personally, can't afford it so I have to do the work.

Apples and oranges. Yup lot's O diy'rs here (me included) but If they do a good job and everything they say and your wallet is just laying there looking fat.... seems like a reasonable price. Even if 1 in a thousand XS650 guys says yes that's what 60 engines?

 

[SEarhart]

What they said.

$1,695 + $250 or core + crate or $100 + shipping
