Bob Jones
Has the markings of one of Bob's bikes. I have not seen it before in any pictures. But that does not necessarily discredit the fact that it may very well be one of them.
May contact Karla. She may be able to verify. Not a terrible asking price if nothing is wrong with it.1981 XS1100H Venturer

Its the real deal. Owner has a book full of documentation from Bob detailing everything he did step by step in great detail including pictures of each step during the build. Anyone near by welcome to inspect. Wheels are spinning here will be in KC for business Looks like a find. Just to see the book would be a treat.82 XJ1100J

I can tell you that the signature on the tank is the real deal.

For that price I'd expect it to be a little closer to stock.
Mirrors, volt meter, rear signals, master brake resevoir, set up for a windscreen and saddlebags (probably soft).

It's lovely. As I recall, Bob built these with luggage. It appears to be missing.Marty (in Mississippi)

Good catch Marty..brackets are there but no bags...that should detract something from the asking price..1980 XS650G Special-Two

Easily a $3600 bike though assuming its already running OK.
Nice find.
