1979 Yamaha XS750, three-cylinder. Black in color with some extras and only 31,xxx miles on it. Needs very little work.

Things we've addressed:
-carbs rebuilt
-new battery
-new oil and filter
-new plugs
-refresh the brake system

Things the previous owner added:
-de-baffled pipes (sounds damn good)
-windscreen (nice for highway riding)
-aftermarket seat (nice on the tush)
-luggage rail/backrest combo (make the lady comfortable)
-aftermarket airbox setup

Things we know it needs:
-headlight bulb
-MAYBE intake boots (runs really well but they are cracked)
-front tire is showing a little dryrot but lots of tread.

Based on current market and other for-sale ads for identical make/model/year, We are asking(see below for price)for this bike. Neither of us would hesitate to register this thing and immediately be riding it....really a good bike for the money. Clean title. Very motivated to sell. Cash talks.

on to pics:

If someone is interested, we have part of a hardtail kit (these are shaft drive so only half the kit is required, there is another xs750 in the background we hard-tailed for reference with the other half of mentioned kit).....this could be negociated into the deal. You can PM either of us about the bike, but it is located at checko's place in S.Buffalo and I have the title in my possession.

Also, video of cold start/running....(kickstarted because didnt have full charge on battery yet)

Would trade for a quality working lathe, or would throw in my bobber towards a quality mill.

would also trade for a 67-72 ford F100 of comparable value (I.E. not running or missing drivetrain)
 
Willing to make up a cafe seat, mount one of my Emgo headlight fairings, and install clubman bars for a little extra if someone wants a headstart on a cafe project.

Also willing to convert it to a hardtail as Checko and I did with an XS850 recently for a bit extra if someone wants a headstart on a bobber/chopper project...

The bobber Checko and I built for reference:
