XS1100 -- Everything You Need To Know | Yamaha XS650 Forum
2022年5月24日 · As compared to KZ and GS liter bikes, the XS1100 hasn't been getting the attention that they do, even though you can make the argument that the XS is the better bike. I've been involved in the community for about 20 years. XS11.com is dead and taken up by XS11.club. It's very slow as compared to here.
First Impression: the 1980 XS650 Special II - Yamaha XS650 Forum
2021年12月2日 · Hi, one and all; greetings from a new member, I recently purchased a 1980 Yamaha XS650 Special II on Nov. 8 this year, and then found this forum and have been reading in the Garage.

What makes the xs650 engine so special? | Yamaha XS650 Forum
2017年6月21日 · Hands down, the XS 650 is the best "B" roads bike. Big enough to get into trouble speedwise, if set up right comfortable enough to spend all day on, properly maintined, will last just short of forever. Handles decently. Light enough to go around town but heavy enough for highway speeds. It's not the best highway/touring bike. 750 and up is ...

The old 750cc big bore kit trick | Yamaha XS650 Forum
2015年9月3日 · The 750 big bore kits work pretty good and service life is about the same as for 650cc. One variable is if you buy the kit complete and ready to go (new block with bored and honed sleeves with pistons and rings) or buy the sleeves, pistons and rings and have the machine work done locally.
Yamaha XS vs Triumph vs Norton (650-850) | Yamaha XS650 Forum
2018年12月6日 · The Bonneville produced about 49 HP @ 7200 RPM versus a rated 53 HP @ 7000 RPM for the Yamaha - so the power-to-weight ratio is very similar (8.53 lb/HP for the Triumph vs 8.58 lb/HP for the Yamaha). NOTE: the difference of 0.05 lb/HP is less than 1 ounce or 25% of the weight of a McDonald's Quarter Pounder burger - so NOT a big deal.
