Basket Case Yamaha XS 250

Quick update, coming together quite nicely.

Few final things to do, new bars, new chain and mirrors on order.

Not for the purists, but i am quite liking it.

I like it, well done for keeping it on the road. I bet the exhaust will sound good

Thanks Dave, first time i have cut the rear off a frame and welded in a hoop, which was slightly disconcerting.

I decided to mod this bike as putting it back to original was just too expensive with the cost of yamaha stock parts. It needed a lot.

At idle its quite quiet, but throaty when being opened up, so far seems good. Not ridden it much yet though (thanks covid)!!!

That looks like an "SE" model which had high bars standard
