1976 Yamaha XS650

Finally got to test dive my latest from the frame up restoration. Very, Very pleased! Few more tweaks and it ready to register.

The best vertical twin ever. Looks a great bike.

Best British bike ever built

They are quite similar to the British version, but easier to work on.

I heard someone say that about the XS650 about forty years ago
"The best British bike ever built"

Hey ! Great bike. In Australia, the 1976 model came with twin discs up front. I bought a brand new red one back in the day, and later rejuvenated a blue one.

Very cool, I will be replacing the clutch rings and springs soon, one thing I didn’t do during the frame up restoration.
