  • free: 1978 xs11 for parts or to restore.

    free 1979 xs11, has grey tank which i bought in 1995. Bike has been sitting 15 years. Frame, motor intact. Kept in garage for 10 years, then needed room so parked in yard under tarp. This year branch of tree fell, knocking it over, quicksilver fairing cracked. I realize I'll never ride it again, as arthritis in my knees (won't bend to 90 degrees without pain). I don't want to just junk it because even in the 90's I remember how hard it was to get parts. I had stopped riding when I got divorced, had to park it at a friends house, and just never got to ride again. Now I can't, but hope someone will. It will have to be picked up because by now the carbs are probably gummy and need to be cleaned, etc.. I also have a whole footlocker of extra parts, an engine with a broken mount, and two extra wheels, all collected when I put this bike together from parts in 1993. Email DLBERGMANN@YAHOO.COM or Call Don 973 594 0801 Union NJ. I used all caps because of the 'L' which people mistake for an 'eye'.
