Lost the plot many moons ago, too much probably too much Scrumpy. 
However to answer the above question, and apologise for my prior comment. 
I have had bad experiences with  1970`s 4 clinder H***** SOHC`s and would nt touch one with a barge pole. However I may have been very very unlucky ! 
On the other hand the XS650 is a reliable lovely bike. Would love another but have recently been reducing the number of bikes. 
Good luck with your search.

Strange as the most reliable bike I ever had was a onda 500/4 k3 Italian import, and I missed out on UK Kevs XS, I viewed the pics on his site and said yes please but someone else was booked to look at it and bought it, 
So i'm still looking beer tokens on the ready.

				Well I had a brown cb550 with ace bars and loved the way it burbled along. Soon forgot about it when I got the Z650 though
