Agreed, most of them looked to be in need of restoration anyways.

Got an extra $250,000 in your pocket? Entire private collection for sale.

Just even attending a Mecum auction in Las Vegas is very interesting !
Very few XS650's however. We ride such elusive beauties eh ?

That’s so true. I remember a time here in Phoenix when our 650’s were the Volkswagen Beetles of the motorcycle world. They were everywhere. Now? Literally THE ONLY one I’ve ever seen here in the last 20 years belongs to Daniel Black, of this forum ( my engine installing buddy! )

I've posted a pic of every XS650 I find around Vancouver WA ! .... Zero

1975 unmolested all original parked in a garage and not ran in 30 years. $3000

This guy re posts this bike about every 6 months. It must be his old bike he’s had forever, I don’t think he really wants to sell it because he won’t come down off of his price.

got an extra 5k? I really shouldn't say anything about what a guy wants for his 'scoot'...but since I'm frugal(read 'tightwad') I can't help it.

This is a new posting

Hey - that one looks nice (except for the no fender and clubman bars) - and it’s a manual transmission too!

 

[Superjet]

Yeah it is a nice one for sure. Sure would be nice with a fender lol!!

 

[member28833]

Could just take the rear fender off to match ?
Spose a tank bag with those bars may hinder straight ahead vision ?
It does look nice. Just before Christmas ?
Ouchy

I have noticed more old Triumphs for sale lately in Arizona than I can ever recall. I have also noticed the prices are , for the first time , edging lower. It used to be you couldn’t touch one for less than $5000. But lately they’re showing up for a little less.
Thirteen years ago I paid Baxter Cycles in Iowa, $4000 for a ‘76 Bonneville , and that got me a fresh rebuilt engine, new tires , tubes, chain, brakes and delivered to my door in Az.
Those days are long gone. Damn I should’ve held on to that bike!
