Hey, Ben -
This is the same bike that has been for sale at least 2 other times, both on Ebay and Craigslist ... with no takers ...
Not a fan of dual headlights or bar-end turn signals on the XS11 ... certain other bikes, yes, but not our Elevens ...
Not to mention those beautiful
sidecovers ...

Yeah, you're right, Ben ... it is interesting ...
Everyone has their own ideas about what kind of mods to make (or not make!), and I'm always curious to see each person's take on how to mod.
I may not like some of the mods, but there's usually at least one good idea you can glean from these altered bikes ...

I got a lot of good ideas out of this mod, don't use diamond plate on anything other than running boards!
Not to mention the fact that the XS11 is a great first bike?

Those headlights could look right with a better paint scheme. Just kind of ugly. The bar end signals look cool on an 850 "kafe" build I saw.1979 XS1100F

Godzilla is an XS11.com icon. It can wear whatever it wants.

Hmmmm ...
Diamond plate hard bags ... definitely not my cup of tea, but hey, to each his own, right?
However, given the iconic status of TC's ride, the diamond plate bags, and the fact that it is, after all, a motorcycle, perhaps it should be re-named ............
MECHAGODZILLA!!!
