Somehow these little Yamaha twins keep popping into my life. We had the crazy mutant hardtail, drag bike, StreetCHOPPER thing. That ultimately turned into an unrideable waste of time. There was the cafe, streetfighter, StreetRACER project that never got finished because someone bought it along with the yard find rust bucket. This time my good buddy found one in fairly good shape that ran well for all of 3 hours before he realized the entire electrical system was crap. About 3 months ago we replaced everything with a PMA swap and Pamco unit and it's run well ever since. Then he sold the CB400T hardtail project and dumped some money into this one. After totaling the Savage Brat in an accident last year he has been jones'n for another Brat Style ride. Enter XS650 project number 4. This one is on the road and running well though. Follow along as we take a perfectly good motorcycle and cut it it bits...
