1979 Yamaha XS650 Earnhardt Tribute Street Tracker

For sale is my 1979 Yamaha XS650 Street Tracker. It had to be black so when I started trying to figure out how to integrat the headlight into my front number plate it was a no brainer. Plus the Iconic #3 just adds more symbolism to the era this bike came from. It is built from the ground up using quality parts and much attention to every detail. Many parts were custom fabricated or machined and nothing was under engineered or left to wonder about long term reliability. The engine is acompletely rebuiltwith 940 miles of careful break in and fun rides. The bike is the product of a 3 year carefully thought out project. The frame was media blasted and primed with acid etch primer and 3 heavy coats of single stage black polyurethane enamel. EVERY bushin, earing and seal were replaced. Brake calipers were rebuilt and custom machined for a more modern look. Rotors drilled and surfaced. New alternator rotor, oltage regulator/rectifier and gel battery installed. New handlebars, ew front master cylinder, SV levers and cables. All engine covers polished and clear coated. Front forks and fork braced polished and clearcoated. Dunlop K180 dirt track racing tires front and rear. Tank and XR styled seat pan/rear fender are base coat and clearcoated and smooth as glass. Custom upholstered seat and padding with a red accent to compliment the red outlined Earnhardt numbers. I could go on but I think you can see the rest of what is on the bike. Its a beautiful build, ery neat and tidy with attention to every possible detail. Runs very strong and sounds awesome with the Ascot styled exhaust and shorty megaphones that have a small but effective bit of baffling installed. I am sure there will be lots of questions about whether every little part and clutch plate and spring and cam chain etc have been replace, .... the answer is yes !! every part on the bike has been gone through and any normal replacement part was either in excellent condition or it was replaced. And by the way this is a kick start only bike,... it would be unholy to use a starter button on something that is so beastly and wicked.

This is a Street Tracker that I believe is as well built and cosmetically perfect as any I have seen on Ebay. You will NOT be disappointed. It is stunning and capable . I have just about every receipt for the parts that are on the bike. It along with the paint supplies add up to nearly what my reserve is,.... and as usual the number of hours put into such a creation cannot be fathomed,.... and in this case astronomical.

Look very closely at the pictures,.. the levelof detail and attention to perfection on this bike is awesome !!!

Thanks for looking and good luck bidding.
