How many do you have to own before your an addict?

[bbrown]

Hello all,
Wooo hooo, just picked up my second 650!
1978, needs a little love.
Got it for $700 bones (cheap for Canada) and it starts on firts kick.
OK... it starts on first kick but then after you push choke the revs get higher and higher.
Good carb clean fresh plugs, oil and a pressure wash to knock the dirt off and we shall see what we have got to work with.
I will keep my first original and this one I will customize.

One.


But more than one only increases the pleasure exponentially.

 

[DLD1]

One is all it takes!

 

[EvenmoreXS]

Just the one.

I feel guilty when I think of other bikes.

 

[jsmith1107]

Only need one. However, I have two OTHER bikes. LOL

I have 2 others as well. No idle hands in my garage!

 

[azman857]

Do you mean to XS650's or motorcycles in general? Either way it's just one. But the more the merrier. BTW bbrown, nice score.

 

[Sn34ky]

You just need one ... at a time... but group and swapping can come addictive too...

 

[cobrasneverdie]

does ogling at pictures for years before you buy one count?

 

[DIRTY DOG]

well I have 3 and 2 extra engines I must be over the edge!!!!!! HELP ME !!!!!!

 

[ANLAF]

Nope, get your hands in your pockets and buy one, cobrasneverdie, you know you want to - and it's a great feeling bringing home something you know you will spend many happy hours with.

I'd say two, you're still a fan; three or more, an addict!

My 79 Special II

My 03 Road Star Silverado Silver Edition

My 02 SV650N

That's all for now. Don't know what the wife would think about a 4th!

 

[ANLAF]

She's not going to be riding it, is she? Then its's only a matter of her approving the colour.

Interesting front tire reversal.......or something going on there. Good score!
Two running 650's here along with a title possible frame, three extra engines and a plethora of miscellaneous pieces. As far as addictions go, it could be worse........

 

[plane_ben]

Two running and two extra engines. Third frame and engine project being considered and I know where a Special II is hiding in plain site. It's getting ugly, but in a good way.

 

[ANLAF]

I know how it takes over.

[lowliferat]

I have 3 also. I smile every time I get to ride

 

[ANLAF]

Yes, it gets you like that.
