Is this an XS650?

[SteelToeJoe]

Im 99% sure this is a 650. I just want to be sure it is before I drive all the way out to the seller's house tomorrow and find out its an xs400 or something. He knows nothing about it except that its an '82, its a two cylinder, and its orange as hell.

So let me know before I make the trip, xs650?

I don't think it is. The rear wheel looks like one from a maxim.. Pictures are not very good

Photo 4 shows a monoshock swingarm. Not an XS, which has two rear shocks.

Tank shape at the bottom rear isn't XS, and rear fender is not XS. Bradshaw's probably right - maxim, prolly 400cc?

looks kinda small to be a 650 i would guess xs 400 or some other bike. the tank doesnt look like a standard or special.

I think the swingarm is all modified. What bike in 1982 had a stock mono-shock? Are maxims not 4 cyclinders? I really hope it is a xs650 still tryin to hold on to some hope that it is. Are any of you like super positive its not? Not tryin to be difficult I just want it to be one soooooo bad, it would be a sweet deal.
