Max - I always wanted to do an XS based bike, I found a pristine '83 xs650 in the Bronx, pulled the motor and rear hub and eBayed the rest of the bike. I wanted to build the bike from scratch and everything besides the tank was handmade or found at the salvage store down
Just like Deus are influencing the motorcycle culture in Australia, the Wrench Monkees are having the same effect in Europe. This clean and simple XS650 took…
I built this bike from scratch. When I purchased it, it was basically a basket case. I rebuilt the engine, built the jack shaft to run a 250 mm tire, molded the frame, custom paint, custom air cleaners, and my friend John "The Polisher" did a great job on polishing all the aluminum. The frame
Craigslist find for 500 bucks. It was a stock 79 frame with an 81 motor. My original plan was to have the frame hardtailed and go from there. I learned how quickly plans change. Now is where my bike really got started. Ran in to a guy from my area that I kinda knew but

Duane - I named this Sweet Chariot. I finished this on the 4th of July. Home made springer and rear end. It has a homemade rear end, the spider gears are out of a 80 Mazda. Homemade springer front, modified stock 650 rear rims to.
Ric - This is my 76 XS650. Matching numbers and mostly stock. I've done everything I can to resist cutting this one up but a little powder coating to make her look good never hurts. Thought you might post her just to remind people these bikes looked pretty sweet back in the day. Ric Rudler

This is the first build that i've done. It's a 1979 xs650. I decided to build a bobber after watching my dad build one the summer before. After looking for a while I found this bike for sale on craigslist (it was stock). The bike was stretched and lowered three inches using a weld on
