The Yamaha XS650 is a well-known classic medium displacement standard. Produced between 1968-1985 (though the US stopped getting them in 1983), they weren’t a game changer but they were reliable and common enough that maybe YOU were riding one back in the day…are you feeling nostalgic?
The 653cc twin put out 53 horsepower, good for a top speed of about 105 miles per hour. For more on the XS650, check out this profile on Motorcycle Classics.
