tank is too big for the bike, looks to be pre '73 yamaha XS650 with an xs400 front end on it (cable drum brake)…has some high-dollar parts on it though, I see a radian swingarm, tarozzi rearsets, and some nice adjustable clip-on bars. ---

:tup: because he’s out there riding it. A handful of details I’m not in to, but It’s not my bike. ---

Those excel rims are $ too. Looks to me like he’s running no air filter or velocity stack ? Bike looks good overall. I like the exhaust, but as others have said i’m not a fan of the tank.
