Joe Morris Build – 1982 Yamaha XJ650 Bobber

In Custom, Japan by AbhiLeave a Comment

This Yamaha was desined to look like “a vintage pre war style bobber with a twist.” How do you think it came out?

Built by Joe Morris (otherwise known as JMOTO Speedshop), this bike is definitely different. The question is if you think it’s good. The forks have been rebuilt and lowered, and the bars are modern units from Pro Taper. The frame has been chopped on the rear and it’s got a custom seat. The carbs have been rebuilt and jetted to work with the shortened pipe, and the motor is said to be in top shape.
