1978 Yamaha XS650 Special: A classic love story with new twist.

The XS650 Special is a unique version of Yamaha's ever-popular vertical twin. It's a natural choice for the patron of the past, who wants the best of the present. All, wrapped up in one beautifully customized package. At the Special's heart is the same four-stroke, single-overhead-cam, vertical twin engine that motorcycle purists have loved for years. Long on reliability. With a heritage envied by all. But even a classic can be improved. After eight years of refining and perfecting, the big twin is smoother than ever. Steadier than ever. This buletproof mill is fed by two constant-velocity Mikuni carburetors. And geared for anything, with a smoth-shiftinng five-speed constant-mesh transmission. A sleek teardrop tank design, wide profile rear tire, upswept megaphone exhausts and an elegant paint job give the bike a true customized appeal...
