That is practically giving it away. The xs's are seriously becoming very very sought after.
BTW the fools that buy them sink in 1000's to make them into bobbers which IMHO looks stupid on an XS. They cut and chop and weld and ... it looks like it came out of a junkyard ... yea yea that's a special look ... its the retard bike look. XS makes a great flat track or a cafe racer. It does not make a good chopper or bobber.
Now a savage 650 makes a great chopper/bobber. Its not very conducive to the cafe look ... so I thought, until someone made a very nice one -

Anyway I am yet to see a bobber made out of an xs tha tlooks 1/2 as good as that cafe from a savage. I have see 1000's of em, but they all look a bit junkyard refugee like to me.
Cool.
Buddha.
I wish I would have seen this one before I bought my 79 parts bike and 77 titled frame. My bike will be way cooler but oh the work involved. They are great quality bikes though, anvil engine and heavy duty frame.
