Beat me to it, Dookie. Well said!
If you ate yourself would you become twice as big or simply disappear?

Can't remember the last time I saw one of those XS650's, looks like you found a bargain there.

Looks a bit technical to me! :?

There is some sort of extra lever/control above the right hand foot rest. :o

Is it an "extra speed" device 8O

or high level foot rest to improve ground clearance when cornering :!:






Looks very clean Tony.

Dear I say I learnt to ride on an XS750 triple!
