Like loosing an old friend. Looks like their are a lot of memories with this bike BJ, I'm glad you made this video to have as a reference to enjoy in the years to come!!

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

It was actually really interesting making the video as I always felt like I never did anything with it but then had tons of fun clips and photos from cool shows, events, hanging with friends, etc.

[@arthurleino]

I had a 78 XS650 good running motorcycle. I bought a 1980 Sportster and sold to a friend. Wish I could find another one.

[@gervaisbilodeau8465]

I had an used 1971 XS 650. Brand new value in 1970 was $1245 Paid $600 in 1974. Great bike.

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Id definitely like another one

[@pipersall6761]

Wow! You really did a lot of work on that! Awesome.

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

[@nigelcox7477]

Loved it. Ride on baby - see you round the next bend somewhere 👍😎❤️👌

[@robertcollins4685]

Great video! It’s hard to say goodbye to an old friend.

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

That it is! The day it shipped out hit me in the feels

[@MotoMango]

Such a cool and unique build. I'm sure it's going to a great new owner!

[@thecaudells]

🔥🔥🔥congrats on the sale. Such a cool bike!

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Thank ya!

[@andymiller5611]

A bitter-sweet moment for you, man but you know it was the right thing to do! Going to someone who'll ride it and giving you more time to work on other projects...or to buy more projects! 🤣 Great video as alway, fella! Keep it up! 🍻🤘💜

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

New owner is riding it a bunch which is exactly what I was hoping for! Definitely bittersweet but I know it was the right move so I can focus on other projects. As you know I have plenty 😉

[@miguelpagansr6128]

I’m sure you’re thrilled about it, you’ve had it for a while congrats.

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

As always it was bittersweet to see it go.

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

I will miss it but the current owner rides it a ton and I feel really good knowing the bike is in good hands

[@katywalker8322]

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

[@RobbinVisser]

Awesome chopper, i would lik too know what kind of hardtail frame you have used? Want to hardtail my xs and this one looks great!

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

[@m.j.hooligan8139]

My first street bike XS 650.... bought it new in 1980. Wish I still had it. 🤥

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

They are actually very affordable bikes. Lots out there so if its still a possibility you can grab one!

[@nickcraig2417]

Smarter then me I have a problem letting go of my projects lol

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

I won't say its easy to do but sometimes I must

[@GrievenceCapitolist]

She sure wasn't purdy but she was mighty fine . 🍺 for a broken heart .

[@leebenson4874]

Not a big chopper man but that one has a lot of character! I would never be able to sell her! Her name?

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

I called the bike Sake Bomb as it was an explosion of various influences

[@chema1546]

[@kennethlee5891]

I think I'm giving up on my bike I'm doing this solo and I'm not getting anywhere I think it time to trash this project

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Its easy to quit but then you have to keep starting over. Just take a break from it and come back with a fresh mind

[@robertadams4415]

Bye bye 650

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

It will be missed

[@vladgluhov2399]

god I hate when people turn XS into a chopper ;d

[@BrickHouseBuilds]

Same, just the worst. What I hate more are rude comments though.
