    The Bulletproof XJ

    Up for sale/swaps I have just recently completed restoring this beauty of a bike is all legal and is ready for a new owner equipped with an aftermarket 4into1 cycleworks exhaust and brand new tires and a fabulously reconditioned engine. Not only will this bike get you from A to B it'll take you all the way to Z before you can say Kawasakis are lame! With a 30 gallon tank it is very economical and can get you out of trouble when you need to thanks to the clean crisp sounding power of this fantastic 600cc engine this bike is a classic and will last until your boy crashes it, even then you could probably still start it! Make me an offer I cannot refuse! Bike is available for test rides although proof of a motorcycle license must be shown.

    All the XJ550/XJ600/FZ600/YX600 is pretty much interchangable, the FZ did run smaller carbs than the XJ though

    You're wrong, 600 is chain drive for a start and is basically a bored and stroked 550
