Budget Builds

Not to long ago I said there was a new build coming out.. Well, I finished that bike and sold it within a day to a follower on Instagram.

The asking price on that bike was $3,000. I wanted to do a series of XS650’s at or under $3k, with this bike being the first. 

I’m currently building another XS650 that will be for sale soon. Check for posts within the next couple weeks for updates!
