XS650 engine swap

A lot of people say they will do it but no one has. I think once they see that it wont fit they change there minds. Also it is too heavy and makes a lot more vibes/power than a xs400 frame could take.
 
Hey Chris, Thanks for the info. I just noticed you are from Ny. Are there any big xs400 meets/rides in the area? I'm from PA but I go to the Adirondacks and finger lakes every now and then.

:laugh: xs400 rides, no. There are a few xs400's around where I live but mostly riden by retired guys that put 100 miles a year on them. The only organized rides I see are for harley's and such :( Most people I know won't be seen riding with an xs400 near them:shrug:
 
Haha......that sounds exactly like the scene around here. When I take my cafe bike out for a ride around here, people are like....."what is that thing?" or " Ive never seen a bike like that before." Its all Harley's and sport bikes around here. I tried to get a fall cafe/tracker ride organized last year but it kinda fizzled out. :( Its a shame......
