Greetings all!

Since riding season will be here soon(<100*), I have been thinking about getting another bike to fix and ride.

I've had 11 bikes since 1985 and my fifth was an XS650. Title said 1974 but most parts were later years.

Ive been looking to get another 650. I prefer the looks of the later model specials with the cast wheels.

Here's the "'74" that I rode back in '94-'95

Welcome DRED. I found mine on the local craigslist as it seems in the local paper they hardly ever have old bikes listed. Where in AZ are you? I used to live in Scotsdale a million years ago.

I'm in the far west valley.
I've been scouring CL and search tempest, but these bikes have become scarce since everyone has started chopping them to pieces.
