    Touring package, sale or trade

    XS11 member ClashPistol was kind enough to sell me his XS11 79SF, which had a decent touring package on it, including the fairing, hard bags with stainless steel trim and LED’s, and a trunk with passenger backrest/armrests. Pictures are here on his slideshow which he posted on the bikes for sale forum:

    I’m not going to be using any of the touring package and would like to pay it forward to someone who can use it., so even unreasonable offers are welcomed!

    I’d also be willing to trade everything for a nice 1980-81 special seat.

    Thanks

      Yes mike, I noticed the most obvious, the tank and the seat are "non-SF".
      Did you notice some other stuff as well?

        Just a couple other things

        The LH engine cover (over the pick up coils) seems like an '82.

        The square headlight comes with the fairing bit I'm used to the round one on the Specials.

          Left side ignition cover IS an 81 Special/81Standard(Venturer)
          Right side alt. cover is an 80 or earlier model XS1100(78-80).
          81H Venturer1100 "The Bentley" (on steroids) 97 Yamaha YZ250(age reducer) 92 Honda ST1100 "Twisty"(touring rocket) Age is relative to the number of seconds counted 'airing' out an 85ft. table-top.

                  Yeah, the 15 hour drive is a bit much! I wish I could get it to you somehow...If you were local, I'd just drive over and drop it off at your place!

                      I busted my good fairing last XSSE. I like this one and I need some good bags for The Hornet.
