Pictures!

As you can see by the photos that I had every peice powder coated. Wheels are laced with super size stainless spokes and nipples. Refreshed all bearings seals and gaskets in motor. Fresh hone, new pistons and rings and full valve job. Every part is new. on the bike. I did this 2 seasons ago. This is one of five bikes I have, so it has very low use.

Let me show these pics to a buddy of mine who is way more into bikes than I am.
What engine is that? Chassis model year? Does this have a title?

1977 Yamaha XS650 Clean NC title in hand. The frame is custom built to my specs by a friend that fabricates at Redneck engineering in Liberty SC The very special features of this bike are the threaded rod end rear axle adjusters and the frenched in sight glass fuel gauge on the tank, that has been flat bottomed with a nice smooth arch. Hammered side panels done perfect. Most the bolt on parts are custom hand fabricated, tig welded.
