    Dude.. You don’t have to prove yourself to the jackasses that live on the internet. I’m glad you made the video though just to show what a stock bike sounds like.

    vintage=only way to go

    good for you that you can kick it, and i’m not talking shit about you. you did start the shittalking about that little asian guy who couldn’t kickstart his xs chop. if you’d have bothered to look up his other vids you would’ve seen you were wrong. but then it became just another stupid youtubefight.
    anyhow, nice bike, hope you enjoy it a lot. i hope to get my hands on one of those soon.

    the little asian guy still needed to either tune his carbs or learn to get a full kick on it. his bike was ugly neways

    Beautiful bike! I had an ’81 XS650 Special II but I really think the mid-70s models were the prettiest.

    Thanks! I love this bike; its a fun ride and it gets attention anytime I’m near an older biker who knows what it really is. thanks for the comment
