Blasting through the hills of San Bruno Mtn on my 1980 Yamaha XS650 Delilah. You might recognize this road as the last part of the car chase from Bullitt / Steve McQueen.

  • Last of the great Yammie's,

    Yamaha broke the mold when thery did this one.

    smoothness, reliability.. good look's.

    It has it all.

  • love it.. thats my hometown as well!!!!

  • I had a 89 ^50 Special and it pulled the birds man!Looking for another bike now !

  • The XS650 isn't really an "imitation" Brit bike. It was everything they weren't, and beat them at their own game. Some 40+ years since their introduction, and they still look cool and are a kick in the pants to ride.

    Your friend's was probably an '80 Special. I don't think they came in black in '79, but they definitely did in '80. I have a black '80 Special SG. Has gold badges, too.

  • when I was a kid a guy from the neighborhood had one of these. It was Black w/gold trim and had the cast alloy rims. maybe 79' or 80'?

    At the time I had no idea it was an imitation Brit Bike. i just thought it looked cool.

    I get a kick out of seeing them re-born as Cafe' racers.

  • sounds sweet.
