Hey hey. So I am working on rebuilding my 1982 xs650 heritage special and I'm noticing that I don't have any parts to go under my points covers... I for the life of me cannot even remember if this bike had the timing advance as in the years of owning it, I cannot recollect any wires coming from...
This thread will outline my modifications to the last of my Dad's XS650s. This bike is an 1982 which has had some fairly substantial frame modifications. Dad built this bike approximately 10 years ago, but never rode it much. He always referred to it as a "bar hopper" which I believe is...
Hello all,
I have the guts from a 1975 447 motor but the case has unfortunately been tended to at some point by a chimpanzee. All four of the locating pins for the crank bearings on the upper case have been smashed in because the bearings weren't lined up properly when the halves were...

Looking to sell my heritage special, It's in pretty good condition. It does some show wear for the age. It will probably need a new stater I ran about a year ago but haven't touched it since. It comes with the original tool kit and everything else is original to the bike too with cast...
I am looking to sell my '82 Heritage Special. I bought it in October of last year as a project bike to learn more about working on motorcycles but just don't have the time to invest.
Replaced the clutch, and put some new tires on it when I got it.
It runs well but definitely needs some love...
Hey all, many thanks for the advice i've picked up from here. I love this forum and it has been two years since I first got this bike. It was a little rough, but it was complete. The goal here is to convert the bike but without permanent changes to frame. I kept the stock seat and rear pegs so...
Beautiful bike. Has a matte black finish. Has a new CDI and the spoked tires instead of the ones in the picture. Has great compression and only a few side panels missing. Would be easy to fix up or just chop. ASKING $1500 OBO
My 1982 heritage special uses the CDI TID12-03 and it's almost impossible to find. Does anyone have one they'd be willing to sell me or know where to repair one?
saw some great saddlebags and hard cases for the bike on here but can't seem to find any anymore. Would someone know a good place to look or best new bags?
My bike is in great shape but it won't start due to a my ignition box getting some moisture in it. I'm looking for the Type TID12-03, it's the only thing that will work for the 82. Thanks!
I have a bent seat lever bracket (LH) on my recently acquired '82 Heritage Special. It's the bracket that is welded onto the frame and not the one that's bolted on. Refer to images.
My seat won't properly lock into place. Distance (inner) between the slots is 215 mm whereas the distance on...
