Well I couldn't pass it up! I am now a proud owner of this awesome looking Yamaha xj 650 seca turbo. It has never been dropped til I picked it up and the front tire twisted and the kick stand collapsed and it fell over. But it just got some small scratches and a small hole in a weak section of the fiberglass. I'm gonna have the damn thing painted anyways! I'll post some picks for y'all "a southern thing". When I get off work. Foamy thank you for the words of advice! I am going to enjoy this thing. Also I found a guy online in Switzerland that has 3 of them and he's giving them away. But I cannot remember the website. I have about 5 people that want to ride it and 3 including foamy that want to buy it. And 1 of them is a local Yamaha dealership. I told them we will talk when I finish getting it running. Thanks for the welcome later!

Hi all! Especially foamy. The name is money, just a pun because I have none. I have spent the last hour looking up everything I can on this bike I could find. Foamy's restoration project has my mind spinning with excitement. I found this exact bike with 18,429 miles on it. In slightly better condition, no damage visable, no key however, it was a daily driver 2 years ago and has only been outside for that long. It looks great and the guy said I can come get it today for $150. I am stoked. On a side note the wife didn't bitch at all when I told her about it! Maybe its meant to be! Hopefully the guy is serious and doesn't back out. Also foamy? Knowing what all you have done would you do it again?
