1978 Yamaha XS650 Special 20105 SOLD

This motorcycle is a 1978 and not an 81 as we had previously advertised, but the good news is that makes it exempt from MOT and tax!!
Another fine example of the ever-popular XS650, these always sell quickly, especially nice ones like this.

These 650 twins have quite a following and spares are readily available through specialists such as Yambits. It also needs a seat recovering but again this is a widely available service.

Please quote stock number 20105 when contacting us about this bike.

It comes with US title and NOVA documentation ready to register in the UK. We can provide guidance to help with the registering process with the DVLA.

THIS BIKE HAS NOW ARRIVED AND IS AVAILABLE TO VIEW AT OUR SOMERSET FACILITY. It can be viewed by arranging a visit subject to visits being allowed under Covid restrictions. You will be most most welcome but strict social distancing will be in place at all times. HOT FOOD FROM A BARBEQUE WILL BE AVAILABLE EACH SATURDAY MORNING SUBJECT TO WEATHER AND COVID SAFETY REQUIREMENTS.
