Found this for sale on ebay - a XS650 engine that's been cutaway/sectioned.

Have seen many sectioned engines in the past, but this is the first XS650 one I've come across.

Auction finishes 26 Dec, just before 5.30 pm, and sarting price is £1250

Nitro doesn't add power, it multiplies it! Bob Loux, running 10.07 secs @138mph on a 650 normally aspirated Triumph drag bike in 1965!
