Description

Fantastic XS650 that is stored in the dry and makes for a really fun twin.

I have owned the bike for 7 years and looked after it. I have just had the petrol tank redone on the inside and the carbs we redone last November.

A twin cylinder 650 is great fun and sounds super. It rips through the gears and there are no issues with the clutch or brakes.

The two faults are:
* There is a bit of water condensation on the inside of the tach (see photos)
* There must be a jet blocked as the bike runs perfectly on choke but since taking it out of the garage post winter, its a bit blocked without choke. Fantastic XS650 that is stored in the dry and makes for a really fun twin.
