RIP Brother Allen - 1979 & 1981 XS1100 Specials

04-13-2026, 05:29 PM

I have inherited my brothers bikes this year. He has his 1979 XS1100 Special since 1994 and I found his 1981 XS1100 Special as a standby while he planned the rebuild of the 79........ Passed away Jan 14th, 2026..... some of the old dogs in here may remember him. Miss him a lot.

My sincere condolences for your loss. Losing a brother is tough. I’m glad you’re taking on his bikes. I hope to see you around here.
