         Now, check This XS650 out! I think it's Pretty Cool myself. Looks like he's made it a hardtail without being apparent. Check the short pieces in place from the swingarm to the frame. I'm liking the paint too! It's from a member of 650motorcycles.com

Nice lines. Not my personal cup of tea, but I can appreciate the work that went into it.

A few things I'm not crazy about, but over all a very nice looking . I'd claim that bike anyday.

I like the look, but I'd be a little worried about that hard-tail setup putting too much stress on the swing arm.

I just p/u a '79 XS650 myself (well, a buddy did through me, I'll eb doing the work and have a say in the creative aspect)...Hope mine can look this good...BTW, anyone know any good XS650 technical forums/websites?  I know mikesxs is the place for parts, now I just need info.

    Hey Mike,  650motorcycles.com isn't the same type of site as we are but, there is a bunch of info and pictures of lots of different style of bikes there. There is another one that I can't recall the name of, right off. I have to admit that I'm a bit embarrassed to say that I know someone here does have an XS650 that he's working on and I can't for the life of me remember who it is, I've got it narrowed down to one of two folks but I kinda hate to say without remembering which one it is. Maybe he'll see this and speak up or maybe I'll figure out who it is and get it to you.
