I know, I know, it's not a Kawi......but I got this smokin' hot deal on it!

Last night I swapped an old Honda Metropolitan scooter for this 1975 Yamaha XS650.

Sorry for the poor quality pic.....not my camera!

Don't know what I'm going to do with it yet, but it's a cool old scoot!

I'll probably ride it like it is this year while I think about it.  Next winter could be interesting though...........(maybe a cafe racer, or a street tracker, or I do a chop & bob)

It came with that slick little solo seat in the first pic, and also a vintage king and queen seat (looks kind of goofy on it if you ask me).

All in all, I think it's pretty cool.

I have one of those in "basket-case" condition..a 72. Someday I hope to move it up the priority list. I intended to do a flat-tracker conversion on it. Like i said [intended-too] haven't yet :-[
