If anything, Philip Williams' Yamaha XS650 is one awesome AND light custom bobber, a reference recipe for anyone in search of stripping their bikes down to the bone and still have them looking gorgeous.
This bike is yet another textbook example of how less can actually mean more, while exhibiting just how cool simple, yet highly creative ideas can be.

The tank might seem a bit too 48-ish for some, but it integrates very well with the rest of the build, especially as the low bars , tank's top line are flowing seamlessly in sync with the custom seat, beautifully merging with the upwards slope of the rear fender.

Wrapping the two exhaust pipes together was cool, but having one of them going round the frame's downpipe and then both of them crossing onto the right side of the bike under the seat made everything look spectacular.

If hardtails are your thing, then this Yamaha XS650 is definitely making you drool.
