1979 Yamaha XS650 Exhaust Sound 

Very nice man. I owned 3 XS 650's over the years that I rode. Of all the bikes I owned in the years that I rode I really enjoyed the XS 650 the most. One of the 3 I went with low restriction and louder baffles, re jetted the carbs and put good and well balanced tires on the bike. Also removed the factory airbox and put dual air cleaners on it. The engine ran stronger and more responsive breathing better and an already good bike became better. That bike was a sweetheart to take a ride on a balmy autumn day a winding, hilly stretch of nice two lane country road. I could lean that one over in a curve and she'd stick like glue, no surprises. As I near 70 and quite riding as extensive osteoarthritis in my lower back and hips made it an unpleasant experience I do so miss it. Be safe brother. You've got yourself a sweet looking and sounding ride.

That's a very nice 650. I'm glad nobody took a grinder to it and welded a hardtail on. You could actually ride this somewhere farther than the local bar. Good brakes, instruments, cushy seat, electric start, it's a Cadillac among junkers.

Great looking XS. Working on a '75. That exhaust looks and sounds really good. And the Wood Thrush singing in the backround is a nice touch.

She’s a beauty man. I listen with headphones on, sweet sound even engine.

My 750 came in a dull orange that i stripped off right away. Previous owner must've been dreaming of this shade but missed the mark bad. This is that beautiful sunburst shade like on the CB550s. Sounds awesome

Love a rumbly-exhaust , this is how we made all our bikes sound, "back in the Day", the sound is such a big part of the riding experience , you cracked-it bro

Had a 79 special,spent months cleaning her up,turned out awsome,keep her as long as you can!!

Oh my how I miss mine. Had a 1975 and to this day was the best bike I had the pleasure of owning. Love your bike man!

Had a 72 back in the day, didn't realize what I had until I didn't have it. Best sound ever.

This beautiful pulse sound heard here is due to first the SX650 twin using a 360 degree crank with an apparent after market similar to British pea shooter muffler. Nice rich sound!

LOVE IT ! It really screams "motorbike". You've done some mods that for years I've been thinking of applying to mine. Like the "streamlining" of the indicators and the lowering of the headlight and speed-rev meters. It really makes for a neater, more compact look. I'm not too fan of the number plate placement though as it makes the opposite, sticking out. Congrats !

Just got a '79 xs650 special and I like what you did with yours.

Aahh the 70 s i loved that color.

Nice! Love the wood Trush birds in the background!

Perfection 🔥🔥

gorgeous bike ,ive had 4 and i miss my us custom badly.

Timeless machine

Very nice work mate...and sound. Love every bit of it. One of the best toys...congrats.

I like this bike. I guess it stated life as a special but is now looking more roadster.

Incredible

got mine too, amazing bike

God they are stunning beautiful. Im only 28 but prefer classics. Selling my fz1 and getting one 🤞👌

This very nice color scheme reminds me to HD XR750. The sound of the short mufflers is decent. A nice sound Last decennias i've experimented with several types of exhausts. Next year i'll reinstall the Campbells. In my opinion the most suitables

This is the most stylish and beautiful XS650 I have ever seen!! Just wonder if the tank and seat are original, or did you swap them for the others?

Beautiful bike

Very nice work mate...love it.

Nice. Like your paint work. Was thinking of putting fairly straight bars on mine also. Nice to see how it looks like on yours. Cheers

That’s a cool-looking XS. Just the right amount of mods and still retains that original look. What kind of rear fender and Exhaust? How about those bars?

What kind of rear turn signals are you using? I'm pretty much going to copy what you've done, with the exception of the paint job. But I love everything else you've done.

it looks mean from behind I like it

Nice bike i have a 79 as well :)

Looks and sounds great Is that an original colour scheme ?

Where do I purchase one of the ingnition modules? I can not find them. Bike sounds Fantastic!!

Very nice, Would you mind sharing what handlebars those are and was the installation easy? thank you

I have one too…👍🏼👁️👍🏼👁️👍🏼 looks good…where do you get your work done ?…I would like to customize mine as well…I just don’t have the experience, time, or tools..

Very nice bike. Is that the original gas tank? I would change the seat though.

One of the nicest xs650s out there, great job. What gauges are you using?

What type of mufflers are those? They sound great! I want to get a pair for my vulcan 500.

Hoping my 81 xs650 can sound this good at idle when it's finished. Where did you get the exhaust?

I just pick up a 78 and want to change the handle bars, What make are the one you have?? Also the rear brake/turn signals?? Cheers

Very beautyful❤ 2:17
