Just the one I was looking for, and for a long long time. Too late now though. A real motorcycle. Non of that transformer look... why the hell didn't the keep making it, I definatly would have have one a few years back. I would post a pic but am on tablet and not that smart. I have an expensive Samsung 10" 3 years old and it is a piece of crap and now the battery is taking a crap.

The XS-650 was legendary. It arguably ended the reign of the Triumph Bonneville as favorite sporting twin. It had electric start, a bullet proof engine and was reasonably priced. Unlike British twins of the era it just flat worked. No oil leaks, fluky electrics or constant maintenance. It showed Japan, Inc. could build an epic day to day bike.

I'd have another one if I got the chance to get a later model ,,,decent mild power ,,lite,,agile ,,good brakes once you change the front line to braided stainless,,,and after 5000 miles the rear shocks and change the front springs and valving,,,but when new they were pretty nice right out of the box
