Engine Tear Down! (page 2)

Ok so I decided that the most important thing is obviously the power plant in any vehicle, so I decided to see what all the fuss was about the engine and why it needed a rebuild. Here is what I found....




Ok, so I figure it's probably easier to buy a new engine at this point, but realize that the XS650 is so scarce in Canada for Running AFFORDABLE parts etc, that I decide I want to rebuild the entire engine from the ground up. 

NEW BOBBER BUILD! (page 1)

April 23, 2013,

Purchased the 1978 XS650 bobber. 1978 frame with amen saviour plunger rear on the frame. Engine was included but needed a complete rebuild. The bike as it sits cost me $700.00 and that came with a clear registration. The bike is now registered and licensed, so I can have my way with her!
