Vehicle description

The XS 650 project started 2 years ago when Jouvin Jacques began searching for the perfect Motorcycle for his special project. After having found a used 1H1 from 1978 the project was launched. A number of moto enthusiasts and garages worked together to create the classic, the world of motorcycles was missing. This experienced team of builders from France has made the Yamaha XS650 a force to be reckoned with. Based on XS650, it was extensively modified to feel like the most classic bike on the planet. The bike is a one-off that looks like a piece of art. If you are interested in the bike please get in touch with us.
