I am on the lookout for an XS 650 in pretty much standard condition, doesn't have to be perfect as I intend to ride it, cash waiting.

paint faded but it starts and the chrome is good, bit of fettling should have an mot on it. its a nice early one so you should get your money back.

this guy seems to buy lots from D and K at stoke. he then doubles the price. They were selling it a few weeks ago.
