1970 Yamaha XS1 650 Original Condition for Sale

Rare find!

1970 Yamaha XS1 650 in excellent original condition. Only 8,584 miles and completely original, except for maintenance items, NOS tank badges and a fresh original style Dunlop K70 rear tire.

Bike has been serviced and cleaned but not restored. No touch up paint or re-spray. Recent oil change, carb clean, petbird rebuild, air filters, points, plugs and battery. Starts, runs, and sounds great. Drives, shifts and stops as it should but remember this is a 1970 bike with an original front tire.

Original green paint is in amazing condition, nice and shiny with very few flaws. Seat is very nice and the aluminum finish on the motor and wheel hubs is very good. Chrome on fenders, bars, blinkers, etc. is excellent. Wheel rims are clean and nice with few flaws and original exhaust is very nice. Original grips, mirrors, levers, switch gear all in exceptional condition. Speedometer and

tach work great, nice and clear with excellent chrome finish. Original cables all in good shape, check out the throttle cables unique to the 1970 model. Many other details such as valve tappet covers are also unique to the 70 model and impossible to duplicate.
