  • 1978 XS1100E Full Dress



    I'm about to post this on craigslist, but I thought I'd give the community here first crack at it, in case anyone is in the Seattle area and wants a great running full dress XS11.

    The bad:
    - Could use some cosmetic attention. It's not terrible, but it's definitely not perfect.
    - exhaust has a leak or two. This thing is pretty loud. Kind of cool if you're into that kind of thing.
    - The right blinker isn't working. I suspect the handlebar switch has corrosion, but have yet to investigate.
    - Horn is not hooked up.

    The good:
    - Full touring set, including fairing, saddlebags, and top bag, all in the original "macho maroon" factory paint.
    - Comfy seat.
    - Runs beautifully. Carbs were rebuilt a few years ago when I rescued it from a barn, and yearly sync on the carbs after that. I had a hard time deciding to let it go because it's the snappiest XS11 I've ever ridden, the throttle response is fantastic.

    Send me a PM if you're in the area and interested. It will go on craigslist in a day or two if nobody here is in the market.

    Thanks!
