1981 SX650 Special for sale. $1200 $1000 for offer. Hopefully I can get this to who loves the XS650 and wants one intact and near original I'm 67, a driveway mechanic with a sore back. I built my garage out years ago and now I regret it. My son recommended I ride more and wrench less. (Let it go dad.) I rode a 2004 Harley Roadster the last two years. I purchased this motorcycle this March 2021 with 27700 miles and rode her close to 6K. This is a good opportunity if you want to get into vintage MC’s. Hopefully, however gets it will keep her intact.
Included:
Good chrome. Blue paint job was awesome but was abused by storage. Tank O.K. Bike needs a top end refresh or new valve seals.
