If this is the sohc 650 carbs are a nightmare, generator brushes and rotors go west plus reg/rec apart from that should be ok

A little defence of the 650 here.  The cv carbs are easy to work on. They are just diffrent.
I hear everybody saying the charging goes south.  I have hade 5 650s on the road at diffrent times and only had one charging problem and it was a bad cable.

Oh, now I get it.  Your a dude who likes Dusters (the car), not one who likes dusting dudes.  (not that there is anything wrong that).

Revelations are a good thing, usually.
