This XS650, the 78E Standard, which I bought over 5 years ago now has been patiently awaiting a reassembly of sorts. Some great new parts have been sourced over the years, as well as many of the original parts were stripped off to be used on previous bike projects. Notably the 79F which got the wheels, Dunlop tt100's, stock handlebars and many small items.
Well now I have the garage space situation improved to the point that there is just no more waiting.
This Nice XS650 "Stormy" just has to get up off the garage floor. Its nearly ready for the wheels and Dunlops that it will roll on.
The swingarm is fully greased up now on the original bushings. Steering stem is serviced too so its just a matter of putting it together from here.
Engine is Good
Feel free to both ask and follow. -R
