I knew it was an RZ/RDLC chassis.
Check this out....it's an XS650-going big bore (custom cylinder block) to 750, big cam....big carbs. The frame got cut down to minimal-kinda bobber/street tracker style.......I'll post up pics of the complete bike soon.
This thing is gonna be 100pounds lighter than a stock XS 650 (at least) , have 25 more hp, and look about like this('cept NOT a hardtail):yamaha_george wrote:RR,
back in the day I used to like to ride the XS650 with the wife on customers bikes that is whilst I had them for service LoL very plush comfortable ride in its day. Not ridden any other tour bike that I liked, I am trying to get our local aprillia agent to let me test ride theirs.
That would make a wicked trail bike fitted with knobbly style trail tyres :-}reelrazor wrote:This thing is gonna be 100pounds lighter than a stock XS 650 (at least) , have 25 more hp, and look about like this('cept NOT a hardtail):yamaha_george wrote:RR,
