Cool, just added myself, but it is a little dissapointing to see so few scandinavians on the map.. I know there are a few more on this site..

g'day, I'm new here. I live in a little town called Wallaroo in South Australia. I race an XS speedway sidecar in the classic bike division. The bike has been sitting idle now for 8 months because I foolishly forwarded u.s.$1550+ to paul/bob bertaut of "650motorcycles.com"(somewhere in New Orleans) about 8 months ago for rephase parts, and to date I have received only some very corny and lame excuses. I dont hold much hope of seeing my money or my parts, so be warned!

Hi I'm from Platteville Wisconsin (southwest WI), but my hometown is in Glenbeulah Wisconsin. I have a 1982 xs650sj.
fruitnut, hope you get your money back and thanks for the warning about the guy in New Orleans.

thanks, no satisfaction yet, but he's making promises, (continuation of stalling tactics I think.)

Hello from northern Indiana, glad to be a member. Here is a little about myself, I have a 1976 XS 650 C that is a really nice original survivor a 1981 650 Special that is my gravel road burner and occasional trail bike along with a 1978 650 Special that is an incomplete non-runner and enough parts for another. I also have a bunch of other motorcycles, dirt bikes, street bikes, and yes even a moped and a couple of motor scooters. Weathers getting nice so I'll finish with pictures later.

Hi, glad to be aboard. I have a 79 Special 650. I live in sunny Tucson AZ where the weather is nice pretty much all the time. Hope to learn a lot here and maybe even pass some knowledge on too. Great site and thanks for your effort in keeping it going.

COOL! It's GREAT to see so many people from all around the world - LITERALLY! G'Day to all you Auzzies, Scandinavia, (the rest of) Europe, all over the US, Hola to Argentina.... Welcome everyone!
I'm from Calgary Alberta Canada (now living in a small town just north of there). I've got a 79 XS650 Special II.... It's mostly stock but with some improvements.
We're all here to learn, have fun, and make friends. There's lots of guys here who probably know more about these bikes than the engineers do - Read up on your carbs in the Carb Guide, If you have electrical problems, Curly's Charging System troubleshooting guide is for you.... suspension, electrical, engine, and custom mods abound here - so don't be afraid to ask!
