    Well I thought about using it as a parts bike,
    but I wont!,
    I will probably spend 6 to 8 hours or so polishing it up,
    and would have it then painted and then registered if I bought it,
    I really hate to part out a classic bike,
    especially if it is an XS11!

    (I would not be able to sleep at night if I did it, tossing and turning, you know!)

    I do not think customs will charge that much for duties on a bike,
    I bought a HP Blackbird PC in December,
    and it was $2000 dollars US and they charged
    only 90 dollars US in duty fees,
    however I will do a Google to get an idea of the fees associated with importing a $700 bike from Canada!

      This bike needs a good home it is way to nice to take apart and as for the duty taking it across the border there is hardy anything cause of the year of the bike.

      P.S. am not parting it out if nobody wants it i will take the bags and fairing off it and ride it myself.

              Oh Thank God.
              I did not want to see that nice bike being broken up.
              I was trying to bribe the wife with a cat if she would let me get that bike.

              Now there is no need or this young cat. hmmmm general tso's kitten anyone?

                  Well that is a relief Narnae I presume it has gone to you. When picking it up watch out for speed traps East of Kingston.
