    You've done incredible work, incredible workmanship. Beautiful bike. I owned 2 650's. A 72 and an 80. Always regretted selling them.

    This is the cleanest-looking Yamaha XS 650 chopper that I have ever seen -- bar none! That bike runs great! I like the idea of parts being made in the USA! Thanks a lot for this informative and cool video. Ride safe!

    Great bike. Just some advice from a fan: keep the background music lower. It tends to drown out the reason we’re watching in the first place.

    That's one crazy/cool little chop . Those 'cock-tail--shakers' are the longest I've ever seen . I have a nice 'clean' 73' tx650 cafe-bike . Very strong motors when they are set-up right . Dave NZ

    Hello, good morning friend, my name is José and I am thinking of acquiring a yamaha xs 650, could you tell me how good or bad those engines are? The motorcycle in question is from 1982, what oil do you recommend for the motorcycle and if you recommend them as something durable? Greetings from Magdalena Jalisco Mexico ...

    Do you need a battery or will it work with a PMA. system ?

    • @rawhidecycles
      @rawhidecycles  ปีที่แล้ว

      A PMA system is a "permanent magnet alternator", the same as a stock Honda twin from the same era. Most of these bikes with that setup have a battery as far as I know. We have not tried these with a capacitor setup, no battery, but I believe they will work as they only draw 2.5 volts. Your coil will still need 6V or 12V depending on the era of bike. The 6V inclusion is for early Harley owners. Thanks!

    A bit too overpriced if you ask me, Lowbrow are selling the Rawhide single pickup setup for a staggering $289 but sell a Boyer micro power ignition system complete for $285, a no brainer really which one to choose.

    • @rawhidecycles

      That $4 is really a deal breaker for a Made in USA ignition huh?

      @@rawhidecycles Perhaps you didn't understand, Rawhide pickup plate only $289, Boyer Micro system = Pickups, digital power box, coil, leads, plug caps and many other parts in the UK at a new price of $185.21, like I said, no brainer.
