    Bought a XS650 Semi sight unseen

    Hey can someone please give me this measurement for width of subframe. I'm going to do a tracker tail section.

    I just bought a XS650 special. I last seen the bike in 2016 from 20 feet away. The bike was semi clean and drove to where it was parked. Right now the bike is about 400km from me, so I sent a money transfer and bought it. I do that kind of dumb shit all the time so I'm not to worried about...
