      Yikes. Not sure that's worth restoring. I'd call that a $200 parts bike. Then again people used to junk and crush hemi cudas over a bit of rust or minor wreck back in the day!

        At least your is operational LAB3. 😃👍 I can't believe it has an $850.00 bid. That might be a "padded" bid. Might be frozen. Looks like it spent a lot of time outside and at least one valve was open to one of the cylinders. The buyer would need to let those cylinders soak in Marvel Mystery Oil for a few weeks and then rock it back an forth in 5th gear with no spark plugs and rags over the holes.

        Once you get over that hurdle, it's on to carbs, electrical and hydraulics. And if you get it running good, tires and suspension. I'll bet that gas tank is worthless. I can smell it from here.

          This is actually an XJ1100 Maxim not an XS1100 although technically it is the same bike..
