my mistake then it was the engine used in later vanagons and being water cooled would give it longer life. Hey im no snob, Ive had a 68 van, 71 squareback and a 66 beetle at the same time . now just the beetle so I know even the beetle is fun to drive. And you have a point about rarilty all aircooled vw are getting scarce these days.

You're all confused

The 914 had the VW bus motor

The 924 had the Audi/VW motor

The 944 had the Porsche motor

Yup, it was SUPPOSED to be a VW originally. It would have been pretty progressive for VW. The 914 is kinda like the Boxter of it's day. Poor-man's Porsche.

1985 650 cc street bike, dry stored for 4 years, ran great before. That, havnt had time to tinker, priced for quick sale, will provide bill of sale.
Recognize this as a 81 XJ650 Seca,one I'd really like to get,no $$ or space with a KDX still needing a TON of work.SIGH

944 was a decent car. As I recall the 924 wasn't nearly as nice .

The early 924 had an Audi motor, and lacked power. Later versions used the 944 motor but had smaller tires and lacked the fender flares of the 944. Those 944 variants used to be everywhere, now they are all gone. Like single cam honda fours, you rarely see them.

I have one of those. Cost me 600 needing steering head bearings, and wheel bearings. In the USA, 1982 is the only year, and silver is the only color. I saw a red one in Canada a few years ago. I thought it looked better than the silver. The Seca is more modern than the GS650G, with a more compact jackshaft engine, and it is sportier too, with semi rearsets, and Superbike style bars. The straight cut primary gears give a whine that is sort of cool. It definitely has merit as a motorcycle. I would like to see how it stacks up against a GS650G overall. I'm giving mine to my girlfriend as soon as she passes the MSF course. Its been part of my loaner fleet for guests since about 2007 or 8.



The Seca came with loose ball bearings in the stem, which is cheesey and unexpected. I'll bet that the Suzuki GS650G has better bearings.

[SVSooke]

Cycle Canada did a comparo between the 650 Seca and the 650E. It was pretty close.The 650E is still one of the best bike I've had.
