Hi I have a 79 Special ll US import from Idaho purchased last year in boxes, my first XS650. This is the stage I'm at currently with the newly rebuilt engine fitted. The bike is very original so instead of refurbishing with lots of new parts it as originally intended, I've decided to conserve it for now. I shall run it for a while and then decide whether to upgrade it or not . I'd like to build a Cafe or tracker some day but perhaps that will be a good excuse to buy another !

that was a trial mudguard to keep mud off my new engine but I've since found it to be unreliable

Welcome, peanut! You know bikes, you ask good questions when you don't know or haven't decided about something, and you're always ready to help others. You'll be a valuable contributor here.
