Hey guys, I'm new here so I hope I'm putting this in the right spot. I didn't see a classified section...

I have a set of cast wheels off a 1979 XS500.
Rear: 18x2.15 with disc and 42 tooth sprocket (43 tooth available)
Front: 19x1.85 with disc and speedo gear housing

I have a spare set of calipers that go with this bike as well if anyone knows whether or not they'll fit a 650.

1974 XS500 Tank with key and dual vaccuum petcocks (have a set of manifolds with the vaccuum tee as well). I tried to take as many pics as possible so anyone interested could get a rough idea of the size and fitment. No leaks, no serious rust and it looks pretty clean inside. There's one very small ding on the right hand side (to the right of the "A", it just looks like a scratch, but it is in fact a small ding. Paint is pretty rough, so it will need to be refinished. Would be a nice cafe tank (I'm using the other one on my project). I have more pictures if anyone wants anything specific or more measurements. Here's a few to get you started.






BS34 carbs. These were on the bike when I got it, and it ran, but only on full choke (bike sat for 4 years). I'm not sure of the jetting on the 500, but they'd need to be rebuilt or at least taken apart and cleaned so all that fun stuff can be taken care of then. I'm getting rid of them because I'll be using the 38's that came off the spare 74 motor I have. On to the pics.



sorry for my crappy camera, measurement skills



Again, if you need more pics or info, let me know. If you think I've made a mistake in my info, PLEASE let me know (I'm fairly new to this). And sorry for being so long winded, just wanted to give as much info as possible.
