Might close a deal on a 1977 XS 750.... Who has one and can you offer some pointers.
The bike is silver and in good condition. I would give it a "6" when comparing it 6to my XS650 se. This unit is classified as a touring modle with luggage, tail rack and crash bars front and rear.
The owner claims he does not have any trouble with second gear, the real issue that I recall from the XS750 se that I owned 20 years ago. I gather from talking to the fellow, the bike runs rough, idle's poor, which I assume is due to junk in the carbs.
The fuel tank has rust, which I hope to remove electronically.
Good tires and the seat is recovered. Missing a right side cover. The exhaust is new.
Anyone care to chime in....advise is welcome.
