Nice find!

That was my first "big" bike after I graduated from minibikes and scooters.  I loved it so... but man was it buzzy!

Best of luck.  I love the street tracker look on these.

Cheers

         Hey Mark. You are right, there are lots of nice XS650 Trackers out there. :) Congratulations, nice bike you've picked up on there. 8) Any idea how you're gonna go with it? ??? If you don't know, there's large number of a wide variety of 650s over on 650motorcycles.com. There's also a vast amount of info and Mike's XS is a good place for parts. There are other web sites for those too, although I can't seem to thing of them right off. tintin or crazypj could probably assist with info also. Lots of Luck with what ever you do with that one.

                                  Later on, Bill :) ;)

...hey Bill...gonna leave it just the way it is...its pretty much all original.  Think I'll clean the rims up, and get new spokes.  To many bikes out there in alot worse shape to chop.  In fact, I have a 650 frame I'm going to hardtail, and a motor I'm gonna rebuild for it...that will aswadge my desire to chop an XS   ;)

        Sounds like a plan there Mark. ;) Yeah, while build bikes are cool, it's nice to see an all (or mostly all) original bike now and then. Got some pretty good plans for the chopper motor, do ya? ??? ;D
