This bike is a 1977 Yamaha xs 650 that has received some subtle but important modern improvements. The bike was tore down and all the accumulated rust and crud from the years of neglect were removed via a generous amount of bead blasting then it was powder coated to provide a durable long lasting finish.

The motor received a top end re-build and all new gaskets and seals have been installed. The motor breathes through a Wise Gys 2 into 1 intake and a Mikuni VM34 round slide carb with specific XS650 jetting and a free flowing air filter.

The exhaust system is a custom built low slung set-up with reverse cone mufflers. It has a really nice tone and is not overly obnoxious to those pesky neighbors.
