Went riding Sunday with a bunch of friends and had a great time. I have been riding to work every day this summer by my self, and had forgotten how much fun it is to ride with other people, it kind of revived my riding passion. We probably rode 120 miles in the country, some 2 lane, some 4 lane hiway. I rode my xs because I have my Honda down making some changes. This bike is the best all around bike I have ever ridden. 75 mph cruiseing, no problem, hndles the back country roads like sport a bike, even pulled Chucks sportster in a little drag race. I think on the top end he would catch me though. For the money I have in this bike, I couldn,t have any more pleasure with anything else. Long live the Yamaha XS650.
