80 xs 1100

[motormann55]

Hey guys, I have a 1980 XS1100 that needs some carb work, a good bath and polish but otherwise it is in good shape.

Here is my Craig's post, I have more pics and info for anybody who is interested.

My reason for selling is probably common reason, too many toys/projects, also this bike is really complete and in pretty good shape and I would want to chop it up not restore it.

Asking 1350.00 OBO

backrest?

you need to turn the passenger backrest around to where it should be.
Good luck

LOL, yeah I turned it around but did not take new pics yet.

Looks like a nice bike. I just got a 1980 XS special as well. Is the backrest/luggage rack original? If not, did you have to move the turn signals to get it on?

And now the big question, wanna sell me your backrest?

Hi,

Thanks for the inquiry, but I have no idea if it is original or what needed to be done to put it on as it was on when I bought it.

As for selling it, I actually sold the bike this morning and the back rest went with it.

Sorry,

If you like I can grab a few pics of it and the mounting it might help with your questions. Let me know I will grab them before the guy takes it.

If you don't mind me asking what was the final price
after all the haggling and negotiations were said and done????

Wow! this looks so familiar to me

...the asking price, the model and the day this bike got sold!
Concidence perhaps?

Welcome Vinnie. Lot's of luck with your new ride.
