Hey guys, glad I found this site! Looks like I answered all the questions I have (for now) haha...by browsing this forum.
Just got done building a CB750 bobber and as luck would have it an xs650 became available to me so I'm gonna see what I can do with it. Plans are to sell my honda and keep this bike if it turns out how I expect it to. Tax return time couldn't have been at better time too! I'll be sure to post pictures of the bike as it progresses.

Here's the Honda. I've made a few changes but this is basically what it looks like.

I like the bike sweet simple and done right, maybe keep both bikes after all living good is the best revenge.

If you think the honda looks good wait till you finish the 650.

Thanks everyone! I've been thinking about putting all the parts that come off of this xs on ebay starting them all at a dollar and doing a no reserve auction. Do you guys think it'd be a good idea to keep some of the parts together like the ignition switch with the gas tank and helmet lock since the key works for all of them? I'll only be using the engine, frame and electronics.
