    Wanted - WTB - Complete XS650 for full restoration

    Thanks Willis, agreed. Here in CA going through the process of titling/registering without those docs likely is a pain I do not want. The '75 does look compelling though.

    Wanted - WTB - Complete XS650 for full restoration

    Hey Bob! Great to be back! Thanks for your message. I’ll be sharing as soon as I find a suitable sled. There certainly seem to be fewer options than my last go round 5-6yrs ago. No doubt the great moto shortage of late is a huge contributor. Thanks for the note! -GB

    Wanted - WTB - Complete XS650 for full restoration

    Hello to the community! After some time away from XS650.com, and motorcycles in general (first child is now 3yrs old...) here I am back in the mix. My '76 went on to a great new owner, and I regret selling. Bet that is not a new phenomenon. I am looking for a restoration candidate. Ideally...

    Hola Mailman! I did sell the 76’. She went to a great home, and I couldnt have found a better buyer, and a good price at that. The next build is still in the stand, slow progress so far. But all is well!

    Bob, robinc, you guys are TOO kind. Thanks for the support! Yes, the bug is alive and well. I have already found a donor frame from a late Standard model, and a motor... So a new thread will be in the works before too long!

    Sold / Found / Inactive - 1976 XS650 Restomod- Complete / Overhaul / Rebuild $3000

    Hello all, time to throw out some feelers. I am contemplating my next project. Most likely another XS650 project, but one from the ground up and a little more custom. In order to fund that, and clear it with the boss, it's 'one in, one out!' she says. So here I am. Possibly ready to part...

    Ah the joys of a dedicated workspace. I’m convinced had the Ms. and I not moved to place with a 20x20 garage, my ‘76 would still be in tatters. Btw, need any spare parts? I have a slew, happy to send if I have what you need. Thanks Pete, for all your help. -g

    All Balls tapered bearing - removal?

    Here we are @Mailman , finally some photos. The brake is good to go now. New custom line from Galfer. I must say, Dan from Pandemonium deserves a lot of credit for creating the adapter kit, and the great tutorial for the Brembo conversion. This front end is night and day over the original...
